how to update without connecting to internet?

[phsieh2005]

Dear SuSE experts:

I have a couple of workstations that are not connected to the internet. Is there an "easy" to update the software? Is it possible to download all updates software from opensuse.org to a DVD, and then, use the DVD as update source?

Hi, Jonathan183,

I followed the links and read the article publiched by opensuse (the article was for suse 9.2). On the ftp mirror sites, I can only find updates for 10.2. Did not find 10.3 or 11.0. Do you know of any 10.3/11.0 update links?

Thanks!

I'm not sure if this will work.

Hi, Jonathan183,

Thanks for the link. I did try it earlier, but, it does not seem to work with rsync.
