Neither had I, but from the youtube video above, it seems that the products that are "Installed" by the Installation Manager are actually installed in a two step process. The first step is to install the zip files with SMP/E. The second is to install the contents of the zip files into the appropriate Unix directories with the Installation Manager. I don't see how this could be something that could replace SMP/E. -- Tom Marchant
