All my updating stopped working for all my SLES10x guests. I have a YUM 
server that mirrors novell.update.com and it seems to have been working 
fine. I see updates every now and then. However, using YaST2 online 
updates shows me no new updates. When entering YaST2?s ?installation 
source? I get an error and YaST2 removes my YUM server.

I issue rug service-list and get:

# | Status   | Type | Name    | URI

The information is correct. I go directly to my Linux YUM guest and have 
the same problem. I deleted the local service but the service add fails 
with:

linuxyum:/etc/zmd: > rug service-add /var/SLES10-YUP/SLES10/s390x --type 
yum linuxyum

I am at wits end at this point. Can anyone assist?
