"utfwload" wasn't working as planned:  although I had the latest patches
applied [say, for example, 127553-05 or 139548-01], the utfwload command
told me it was pushing out an old version of the FW.

I figured out that it was the "System Version" in the "utfwadm -P"
output that it was grabbing:

/etc/opt/SUNWkio/sessions/SUNWutWBT {28} # utfwadm -P
System Version(P1)      4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48

In an act of pure desperation [and boredom], I added another interface
with "utadm -A" and lo and behold, the "System Version" changed:

/tftpboot {78} # utfwadm -P
System Version(P1)      4.1_139548-01_2008.12.08.15.16

Now utfwload can grab the latest version.

One other caveat:  I noticed it grabbed the non-GUI version in
/opt/SUNWut/lib/firmware/.  If you want to push the GUI version
[/opt/SUNWut/lib/firmware_gui; can access the VPN menu, can override
what option 49 is providing, etc.], I had to move the non-GUI file out
of the directory [in my case, CoronaP8] and temporarily copy in the GUI
version [just renaming wasn't enough; apparently, utadm looks at file
type, not name.  When both files were in the "firmware" directory, it
warned me there was a duplicate and it chose the non-GUI one].

Has anyone else experimented with utfwload and gotten similar results?
