Thanks! I'm still new to the world of Solaris, but a coworker turned me on to 
pca. He wasn't sure it would work, and I guess now we know. Thanks for the tip.

Gael is right. Solaris 11 uses IPS repositories for patching. As much as we 
love pca -- this is still a very good thing. :)

'pkg update' is your new friend.

David,

Solaris 11 does not use patches but packages updates... Pca will not help you...

I'm not sure where to go from here.
