At the time of the I/A release, the system is made as
current as can reasonably be with respect to the
several hundred patches that Sun provides.
The Y2k CDrom has on it a set of Sun patches that
make the release more current.
Is there a specific Sun patch that you would like
to see added to the system ?

Patches for lpsystem and lpd etc.
are separate from a kernel Jumbo patch.

As I said before there are several dozens if not
hundreds of patches for Solaris 2.5.1
I want to caution you and everyone else on using
any kernel Jumbo patch (103640-xx). This will load
on a generic network driver that will not work
on the nodebus.

This says to me that the WP is running with
rev 20 of the kernel jumbo patch as a starting
point.

While I work for Foxboro/Invensys I do not
speak for it.
