Hi Andrew.
One of two things;
1) If you get an error trying to start YaST, then you probably have a 
corrupt install.
2) If YaST is working, check your routing tables (route -n).  You 
probably have a 169.*, as well as possibly a 127.* entry, as defined 
routes.  This was working fine straight from the CDs(as in, those 
entries were NOT there), but after an update, the networking scripts 
started adding those two entries for some strange reason.  It is a big 
nuisance to have to go and manually remove those entries after every 
boot/network start.

Regards,
Steve
