Howdy,
I'm trying to install FW-1 4.1 SP5 on a Sun running Solaris 8.
According to the release notes of SP5 Solaris 8 should be supported.
However I can't figure out how to get it installed. If I try to
install FW-1 4.1 SP2 (latest full version on CD) I get:
***************
WARNING:
Solaris 2.8 is not supported by Check Point 2000, Service Pack 2.
***************
And I get kicked out. If I try to install SP5 immediately I get:
***************
immortelle.[root]# patchadd CPFWSP410005-01
Checking installed patches...
One or more patch packages included in
CPFWSP410005-01 are not installed on this system.
Patchadd is terminating.
***************
or a more usefull errormessage is returned using pkgadd:
immortelle.[root]# pkgadd -d .
The following packages are available:
1 CPfw1-41 Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1
(sparc) 4.1

Seems like a chicken-and-egg problem. Any ideas how to get it
installed (I only need the management module)?
Thanks in advance,
Nico
