How can you register with an Internet-provided service when you lack any  
Internet access? I have no idea, unless you are not excluding indirect  
access through something like SMT or SUSE Manager, which could be used to  
register the product even though it does not have DIRECT access.

–  
Good luck.

If you want updates from somewhere, you must have access to that  
somewhere. Whether that somewhere is the Internet, or something local but  
which then connects to the Internet, or is even something local but has no  
connection to the Internet and has media transferred to it via manual  
methods, is up to you. You must have access to data in order to access  
data, and to use suse\_register you need access to those servers.

Point it to SUSE Manager or SMT, which then hosts the media either  
obtained via manual methods or, usually, the Internet.

If you do not have any connection, ever, at all, to the Internet, then you  
of course will not get updates ever and there is no reason to register.

Good luck.
