I have problems running smpatch command on our solaris8/sparc boxes.
Whenever I do smpatch analyze or update I get this following error.

Response code was 500

Here is smpatch setup we have:

bash-2.03# smpatch get
> patchpro.backout.directory      -               ""
> patchpro.download.directory     /export/download        /var/sadm/spool

            -               ""
And here is output from messages log:

Anybody knows what "Unable to create cache downloader" means..

Thanx

Dear folks,

since 7th. Sept 2004 I get most peculiar symbols from the "who" command.

Platform: Solaris 9/SPARC (patched to 30.Sept.2004)
Default ssh configuration.
TCP-wrapper etc.

I did not install h2 (but h1)

<prompt-h1>ssh -l user1 h2
....
<prompt-h2>who

user1 pts/2 Oct 2 08:39 (��
�)
userx pts/3 Oct 13 10:06
user1 pts/4 Oct 14 10:45 (��)
<prompt-h2>

any ideas?

I repeat up till 7th.sept.2004 - all OK.

 From a Solaris 7 machine and from PCs is all OK

regards,

L.Kennedy
