Please note that you are using these updates at your own risk and I do not provide free support for them. If you have problems you should try installing the pkgs from the command line and watch for any error messages...

These pkg files also represent a basic change in the way updates have been made in the past... While most software was "patched" in the past, it will be my goal to build updated pkgs equivalent to the now Current RedHat Enterprise 3 or best... I will be doing my very best to avoid building "patched" versions of old software however in some places there is no choice.

A few issues involving the Sun Cobalt CacheRaQ 4 appliance are resolved with this patch

• Configuring a cluster was not possible in some network topologies.
