The server does not have to be running any sort of YaST server
program. I set up my Intel Slackware system to be a SLES9 installation
server, and it definitely isn't running anything other than what comes
on Slackware.
The key, as you indicate, is the directory structure and symbolic links.

Yes. You need to set it up just as if you're going to be doing a new
install. That will also allow you to install new packages later on.

We copied all the 6 SLES9 CDs into a server and pointed Yast to the
server when trying to install python.
Yast does not recognise the FTP directories. It does not walk down from
the base directory to look for the packages. We have
/SUSE/S390/Server9/Install/disk1 ... disk2 and so on.

In SLES8 you could copy all the CDs into one directory and it would work.
In SLES9 they fixed that. The CDs need to be in a particular structure
with some links and the server has to be running a YaST server program.

Ok, a clarification. I was referring to but post-installation install
of software. Is there any documentation on how to set up an FTP server
for software upgrade? Is this same as YOU server?
