Has anyone been able to get online updates working? I can't access
updates through yast or through using rug. Yast gives me a file missing
error and rug does not offer an channels and I get the following in the
messages file

Is their someplace I am supposed to register to get a subscription? I
downloaded OES through our mla lic.

Thanks

I managed to get my Red Carpet registered today but it has two issues:

It doesn't remember my activation and 'subscription'. Every time I start Red Carpet client I have to reactivate.

Rug connects OK but I cannot subscribe to any channels because it reports there are none.

How did you register your red carpet? I can't get that to work either.

Thanks

I got an email from Novell Product Delivery with my user licenses and OES for Linux license. Contained in that email was a link to register my OES Linux stuff. After doing so I was able to activate the Red Capet via the GUI on my OES Linux server.

Unfortunately the Red Capet doesn't remember the activation.

ok - I found that email too. I don't have X-windows installed on this server
so I can't find a way to activate red-carpet. Good luck and thanks for your
help! Other then this problem I really like OES so I can wait.

You will use rug, which is the command line version of red-carpet.
