 Florin,
 
 I've just installed snf-en-8.2-3mdk.noarch.rpm,
 shorewall-1.2.6-2mdk.noarch.rpm, and fwlogwatch-0.5.2-1mdk.i586.rpm from
 rpmfind.net.  The Official Mirror List is still empty.

well, it worked here two days ago ... I'll check again :)

 Florin,

 What's the underlying mechanism for the list?  Is it simply a URL known to
 SNF or is it a file containing the list?  If I knew what file to look for,
 I'd be able to determine if it's missing, empty, corrupt, ...

I'm glad it works for you.  It doesn't work for me.  It seems likely that I 
have a borked installation.

I'm willing to debug my system to determine if the fault is mine (very 
possible) or not.  If someone would kindly tell me which file or rpm 
contains the information, I will be able to figure out what is happening.

 same thing here ...
 
 but if you want to dig and see how it's done ... simplay have a look at
 the apache log messages will working with the frontend ...
 /var/log/httpd-naat/httpd-naat.error_log
 
 You'll find out that two backend variable are used : the *Mirror* ones. If
 you check in the backend variables list you'll find out that a sript is
 used for one of them: /usr/share/naat/scripts/mirrors.pl (perl script
 using a silly curl line)
 
 cheers,

sorry for all these typos ... :)

one more thing though: of course you should allow the http (or www) traffic from
the lan to the wan zones :) at least during the updates session. If you're
using the proxy, you already have the right rules added.

sincerely,
