Hi There are a few things to setup if your going through a proxy; Your proxy should should accept Novell domain (or at least selected sites used like [nu.novell.com](http://nu.novell.com) and [secure.novell.com](http://secure.novell.com)) without authentication. You need to populate proxy setting in YAST and to add two lines with your proxy information to /etc/profile, for example: export http\_proxy=“[http://10.10.1.1:8081/](http://10.10.1.1:8081/)” export https\_proxy=“[https://10.10.1.1:8081/](https://10.10.1.1:8081/)” As well as the /root/.curlrc Then I would login to the NCC web page and delete the system and re-register it. ```auto suse_register -a regcode-sles=YourActivationCode -a email=YourEmailAddress -a moniker=YourHostname -L .suse_register.log ``` – Cheers Malcolm °¿° (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 (x86\_64) Kernel 3.0.13-0.27-default up 2 days 20:25, 2 users, load average: 0.02, 0.04, 0.05 CPU Intel i5 CPU M520@2.40GHz | Intel Arrandale GPU ---

For what’s its worth, I have a SLES11sp2 box with nearly the same problem. I’ve checked the .curlrc file, (BTW the proper syntax there is “–proxy [http://proxyname](http://proxyname):port/”) All those settings are good. Proxy is set in Yast. If I test with Firefox, I set FF to use system proxy (instead of explicitly defining it) and it works fine; our proxy has a special list of servers and sites that bypass authentication; all novell, suse, and attachmategroup sites are in the list. This also tests successfully in Firefox. But when I try to refresh my repositories, it tells me it can’t resolve [nu.novell.com](http://nu.novell.com). If it were using the proxy properly, it would. I can type [nu.novell.com](http://nu.novell.com) into Firefox, and while I get an expected 403 error, at least it proves it’s resolving through the proxy - it gets there. Seems something in curl is broken. (BTW we have other servers that are in fact working… so the proxy is okay, it’s something on this SLES box) ---
