Neither for me.
Although living in Germany, I never got a German source

russian you mentioned,
So I take it that it is trustworthy if it crops up by itself? If not,
many others (or in Germany only?) will be using an untrustworthy repo.
Can it be validated?
or one in Austria.Yes, you are right; pardon for my geographical error, I said Switzerland
(TU-Wien): (Technische Universitaet Wien) which actually is in Vienna
Austria ... :-/
This does not make sense at all,
since my IP clearly points out which mirror would be the best, i.e. my
University's, which is also on that mirror-list but never gets chosen.
LOL - Novell wants no original SuSE German 'links' (read 'heritage')
anymore?
Just forget about that automatism and replace those sources by those that you
know are fastest for you.

Dear Al,
I found your mail in an OpenOffice Forum from where you did not get a
sufficient answer.
I had the same problem some weeks ago. This server seemed to block my
PC, so the only measure was "hard reset", i.e. the power switch.
But I don't know whether anything dangerous remained from this attack.
Therefore, I'm very interested whether you got any answer to your question.
Best regards,
K. Schröer

Subject: SUSE 10.2 Repo - ftp.chg.ru - ?
Hi all,
I just installed SUSE 10.2. The Online Update config did not find the
'drives' in the URL in Switzerland (TU-Wien) it automatically configured
at installation. I deleted the Installation resources and entered those
on the openSUSE site: http://en.opensuse.org/Mirrors_Released_Version
for the servers nearest to me (Germany). Then it worked.
I started the the Yast Online Update (after running the Online Update
Configuration) which suddenly went to a source in Russia?
http://ftp.chg.ru/pub/Linux/SuSE/suse/update/10.2?alias=SUSE-Linux-10.2-Updates
Why that? Where did it come from? It wants to update a flash plugin ...
(which I stopped till I am sure, even if there was a flight of files
flying through the Online Update Config with some certificates ??...)
Sometime ago such .ru URL's were viewed as risky. Is this source safe?
On the official Mirror List above, only ftp://christ4you.ru/ is listed
for Russia.
?:-/
Al

Hi Doc,
it only happened with one of the 4 systems I installed since then.
I installed the 5+1 CD version, which had the ftp.hosteurope.de/ .. as
installation source. There was no problem then. The one that had the
problem was the i386 DVD version. I still have to try the x86_64 version
in the next few weeks.
I reposted my question on the openSUSE mailing list
(opensuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx) because my post under OpenOffice was an error.
There was a response by Sven Burmeister.

No new info at the moment. The thread was then unkindly
redirected/hijacked {by ralf.prengel@xxxxxxxxxx - Subject: [opensuse]
Sound music only via headphone).

PS: Doc Schröer, I sent the answer to the OpneSUSE mailing list, and a
PM to you so you could find the thread there. Use Strg-L (DE) or Ctrl-L
(UK/US) to respond to the OpenSUSE Mailing list, once you registered
there.
PPS: ralf, what you should have done was to create a new thread, not
just 'click' reply and change the Subject line. No fear, it happened to
me too ...
