Over Macho Grande

I'm reinstalling Solaris 9 OE and "smpatch" is running on the SB1000 right now. The following error message appeared on the screen: CRITICAL: The patch 112838-12 makes the kernel unstable, is obsolete or is forbidden by policy. How's that for automated patch management?

I compiled the latest version of MIT Kerberos for Solaris tonight. All in all not too painful. I hadn't done any compilation since December, so I forgot that it's best to use bash instead of tcsh as my configuration shell. For future reference, here's the configure options: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --without-krb4 --with-tcl=/usr/sfw --enable-shared
