Thanks for refreshing my memory.  Darn it.  :)  (I hate when being on call 
wipes my brain clean.)  This brings me back to one of my earlier comments.  If 
you want to download maintenance for SP2, you have to either register an SP2 
system, and use the contents of /etc/zmd/deviceid and /etc/zmd/secret from that 
system as your YUP_ID and YUP_PASS variables, or (as Marcy just reminded me) 
you have to use the mirroring credentials that you can find on Novell Customer 
Center.  Refer to http://www.zjournal.com/index.cfm?section=article&aid=992 " 
Setting Up a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 Maintenance Repository/Mirror" for 
details.

To refer to a previous question about registering an SP2 system: Being able or 
unable to access updates from nu.novell.com has nothing to do with downloading 
the SP2 installation media from download.novell.com.  So, it's not a Catch-22 
situation at all.
