Solaris 10 patches from 11DEC2006 and 01SEP2006

I have a customer who is telling me that he needs mirroring functionality in a patch cluster dated 11DEC2006 and 01SEP2006. I can find reference to patches on either of these dates.
Is there a list of patch clusters by date? If not, does anyone know of patch clusters with those dates?
Regards,
Matt Frye

Its a bit tricky when it comes to patch clusters. However, if the functionality was added in a historical patch cluster, it will defently be in the latest one as well, so you should be safe with the latest one.

I would like to see and access the correct sound patches from my E-mu mps orchestral plus from inside of logic express.

I would like to see and access the correct sound patches from my E-mu mps orchestral plus from inside of logic express.
Right now , I have access to some of the sound files but most are missing and all are incorrectly labeled.
Is it possible to ("Library") these sound files or access them from logic?
Thanks

Solaris 8 United states DST changes - patch 109809-03 and 108993-56

Setup:
- I am using solaris 8 server
- I edited /etc/TIMEZONE to include TZ=US/Pacific
- I installed patches 109809-03 and 108993-56
- Rebooted the server
To test if the new DST chanages for year 2007:
- I set up time to DST start time. I get the expected behavior (spring forward) as shown below:
# date .57;while [ 1 ]; do date; sleep 1; done

Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 PDT 2007
Sun Mar 11 03:00:01 PDT 2007
- I setup the time to DST end time (fall back) and I do not see time changing back to 1:00 am at 2:00 am

DST ends?Already was.I again do not understand what "Already was" means. I expect after 1:59, the time to be printed as 1:00 am.
Am I missing some thing?
BTW my previous post had a problem. To test DST I set the time by running:
date 031101592007.57
For end of DST I set the command:
date 110401592007.57

I've just completed a vunerability scan (Kaspersky 2010 suite) and it recommends Idownload a patch from the vendor (SA42517= fault report). there are no updates so is Firefox safe to use?

I've just completed a vunerability scan (Kaspersky 2010 suite) and it recommends Idownload a patch from the vendor (SA42517= fault report). there are no updates so is Firefox safe to use?

You are using a relatively old version of Firefox (version 3.6), you should update to the latest version (3.6.13), there have been quite a few security fixes since the one you are using. You can get it from http://www.mozilla.com - you can download the setup file then run it to install it, this will replace your version with the latest.

DS5.2p3 idsktune && Solaris 10 patches

An update, the idsktune script that comes with Directory Server 5.2 Patch 4 still gives this warning. Has no one else seen this or what?

Is it possible to patch Global Zone and only specific Non-Global Zones?

Hi Champs,
Is it possible to patch Global Zone and only specific Non-Global Zones? Idea is to patch DEV-zones only on the system & test applications and then patch only the STG-zones on same server!
Not sure if it is possible but just throwing a question...
Cheers,
Nitin

Yes, if you have branded (non-sparse) zone!Branded zones and sparse zones don't have the relation that you imply. In Solaris 10, native zones can be sparse or whole-root (non-sparse, as you say). Zones that are not native zones are branded zones. Branded zones on Solaris 10 include Solaris Legacy Containers, previously known as Solaris 8 Containers and Solaris 9 Containers. That add-on product allows you to run Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 application environments under a thin layer of virtualization provided by the brands framework. solaris8 and solaris9 branded zones can be patched independently of each other and of the global zone.
Solaris 11 has no "native zones" - all zones use the brands framework. The "solaris" brand does no emulation and in that respect is very similar to native zones on Solaris 10. Solaris 11 also provides Solaris 10 Zones via the solaris10 brand. This allows zones or the global zone from a Solaris 10 system to be transferred to a Solaris 11 system and run as solaris10 zones. When running on Solaris 11, solaris10 zones can each be patched independently from each other and the Solaris 11 global zone. Technically, Solaris 11 doesn't have patches - it just has newer versions of packages to which the system is updated.

Patch from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3

Hi,
Please advise the how long it would take to apply a patch on solaris sparc 64 bit from Patch from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3 .
Is there anyone faced any problems while applying this patch. Please advise the steps involved.
Regards
Harinder

Hi,
I am from UK and I have checked the documentation .Do i need to apply this as well:
5.5 Update Oracle Time Zone Definitions
The 10.2.0.3 patch set includes an update to the Oracle time zone definitions. The 10.2.0.3 patch set updates the standard version of the Oracle 10.2 time zone definitions version-2 to version-3. This version of the time zone definitions includes the changes to daylight saving time in the USA in 2007, and many other updates.
A list of updated time zones in version-3 of these definitions are available from document 412160.1 on the OracleMetaLink Web site:
DST RULE CHANGE IN US, NEED PATCHED TIMEZONE FILES
Please advise.

Filetransfer Slow after applying Solaris 8 Patch

Hi,
I have applied Solaris 8 Patches on SUNF V240 to upgrade from SunOS 5.8 Generic_117250-22 TO SunOS DSSPDAPPSGO2 5.8 Generic_117350-33.
After applying the patch, the filetransfer between the SUNFV240 & my IBM AIX (Version 5.3 ML09) becomes very slow. (eg. 70 MB file need abt 20-30 min to complete.
Before the PATCH, it only need less than a minute.
These 2 servers are connected via a network hub, and set to 100 Full Duplex on the server end.
Has anyone know what cause this & what is the solution. Thanks
regards,

Yes, I have made the 100 full duplex on both servers (Solaris & AIX), but still does not solved the problem.
The only thing I can't change is the setting at the Hub (DIGI MIL-H3130 ) which connect both servers, because the HUB is autosensing, and looking at the documentation there is no mention to set (fix) 100 Fullduplex on this hub.
If I bypass this Hub, and use UTP crosscable to connect the two servers, then it is OK.
I have tried to use another DIGI MIL-H3130 hub, also face the same problem.
I just wondering which particular patch causing this problem in Solaris, and whether is there any solution for this.

Unable to download patches from analyze result

This morning I tried to download a list of patches returned by smpatch analyze but most of them errored out with the error patch not found. Is there a problem with the patch database server?

i believe this is a side effect of patch 119108-03 look at the patch details. i'm not sure myself how to resolve this issue. and i've got the problem now on 2 Sun v40z and a W2100z. here's the relevant information hopefully someone is watching this list!

Install patches from cd

I am new to solaris
how do i install patches from cd.
I am running solaris 8 and cannot go to sun web site on the sunblade 150 due to old version of netscape, cannot upgrade to mozilla without patches. Please help

Depending on what your CD is, the easiest way is to copy the patches off into /tmp, unzip them and cd to /tmp/<patchdir> (where they were unzipped to) and look for a file called install_cluster and run that. That will be the case if it is a 'Sunsolve CD'. You may need, depending on what patches are included, to bring the server down to single user to install.
If they are just a 'random' bunch of patches then you may have more problems in getting the order in which to install them correct - redoing the patchadd command until all that will install are installed is one, really, REALLY, inelegant way of doing that. Failing that, looking through all the readmes to find out any pre-reqs will be required.

Changes in Solaris 10 Patch Access Policy

Solaris 10 x86 User Community
As of November 29th, Sun will be changing its Solaris 10 patch access policy. Now that Solaris 10 is freely available, support services require the purchase of a Sun Service Plan.
Under this new policy, access to patches is restricted. Security fixes and hardware driver updates are publicly available for free, but access to all other patches requires a Sun Service Plan.
Please see http://www.sun.com/service/sunconnection/solaris10patches.html for available access options.
Please send any questions to [email protected]

hi,
As a technical specialist I can understand everyone needs revenues to keep on going. But $120 for a min. level service plan it's really foolish on the policy makers. This would result in severe dent for the Solaris initiative itself in the long run. There should be reasonable pricing model, especially when Sun is projecting Solaris as an alternative to Linux! I do strongly suggest as a loyal Sun developer since 1996 to re-consider the service plan rates.
thanks,
Su37

[SOLVED] Enabling debug for ath9k in compat-drivers-patched from AUR

Wireless card: TP-LINK TL-WN951N. lspci says that it is an Atheros AR5416 adapter [AR5008].
Some background: I'm having the same issues as the OP in this thread, which references this bug report. The problem is that I get a 2000 ms ping every 30 seconds. So 2 seconds of inactivity every 30 seconds. I have the same wireless PCI card, as well. I need to fix this, because it's making online gaming impossible. I should also note that the card is working just fine in Windows 8, however. I am using net-auto-wireless. I have tried using wicd, enabling ath9k's nohwcrypt option, toggling the card's power save, installing the latest compat-drivers-patched from the AUR, toggling different settings in my motherboard's BIOS, and removing the antennae from the card. But nothing has made a significant difference.
I think I'm really close now. I just have to disable ANI. But in order to do that, it seems that I need to enable debugging for ath9k. But this means that I need to either recompile a custom kernel, or somehow enable debug for ath9k in compat-drivers-patched from the AUR. I'd prefer the latter, as that means that I will have a more bleeding-edge driver. That, and I won't have to touch the kernel as much. What I want is described on this page. But it seems too complicated to me. Please let me explain.
I've installed things from the AUR before, as mentioned above, and have properly configured my makepkg.conf for my system. So I'd like to use the CFLAGS and such that I've set. I don't understand how everything works in the PKGBUILD; I don't have much experience with sed and awk and regular expressions, and haven't done much shell scripting at all. It seems that at some point in the PKGBUILD, I need to enable debugging for ath9k before it is compiled. Apparently on the last page I linked to, I need to add:
export CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUGFS=y
to some config.mk file. I can only get access to the config.mk file after I install the package with pacman. I've tried adding those lines to my /etc/profile file, and checked, after a reboot, with "set", that those variables are indeed set. But the thing is, with these variables set in /etc/profile, when I run makepkg, makepkg fails with an error 2. I tried again and got the same error. I removed those lines from my /etc/profile, rebooted, tried makepkg again, and everything worked. So putting those lines in my /etc/profile is not the solution, and I feel like I'm doing something very stupid. What am I doing wrong?
I should also note that I've tried to read the wiki page on compiling a custom kernel using ABS, but it seems to just say "get your custom configuration files" and then just continue (so it assumes that I should already be familiar with the configuration part). The PKGBUILD and Creating Packages wiki pages also seem to be a little... too advanced for me at this point in time.
So how do I enable debugging for ath9k in compat-drivers-patched from the AUR? I'd prefer to stick with only editing the PKGBUILD and using makepkg, if possible.
I've really tried to search the web and the arch forums on how to fix this problem myself, but alas, it seems that I need help this time. I greatly appreciate your time for reading my long post.
UPDATE:
I've made a lot of progress. I ended up removing the AUR package with pacman by invoking "pacman -Rsn compat-drivers-patched".
Instructions for [almost] success: First, download compat-drivers-patched from AUR. Then move it to the "builds" directory (or "local", if using ABS). Extract the tarball. After the new directory is created, cd into it. Now here's the important part: run
$ makepkg -so
Then cd into src, cd into the directory inside src, then edit the config.mk file. Make sure these lines are uncommented (or created, if not already there):
export CONFIG_CFG80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUGFS=y
(source)
Now run "cd ../.." to go back up two directories. Now run:
$ makepkg -e
# pacman -U <file that was produced>
And I ran "mkinitcpio -p linux" just in case, but I'm not sure if that is necessary at all. I'm... not touching the kernel, right?
Now I ran:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani
But bash would say that the file or directory doesn't exist. Even if I prepend it with "sudo", I get the same results. I was only able to get the command to work if I logged in as root. I even put the line in my /etc/profile. The 2000 ms ping every 30 seconds is now GONE. HOWEVER! If I reboot and log in as a normal user, the problem is there again. If I reboot and log in as root, the problem is gone. If I then log out and then log back in as a normal user, the problem does not come back.
So really, I can avoid the problem if I first log in as root, log out, and then log back in as a normal user. But this is a great inconvenience. I would much prefer if I could just log in as a normal user right after boot, and have everything working.
Now, how do I get the command to automatically run at boot as root (without me having to log in as root), and work?
UPDATE 2:
I got it working. Putting the line in /etc/profile is not the solution. I created a custom systemd .service file.
Put this into /etc/systemd/service (name it "disable_ani.service"):
EDIT: Wow. I made a glaring typo here. It should be /etc/systemd/system/disable_ani.service
[Unit]
Description=disable_ani
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/sh -c "echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani"
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Then make sure to "sudo chmod 755 /etc/systemd/service/disable_ani.service", since root owns this file.
Then run "sudo systemctl enable disable_ani.service".
EDIT: It has been brought to my attention that there is a much simpler way than creating a custom service.
Using a tmpfile:
/etc/tmpfiles.d/disable_ani.conf
w /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani - - - - 1
Done.
Now ANI is persistently disabled between boots, even if I log in as a normal user right after boot.
Thanks for reading.

So zsh is telling you that the command didn't work, since it claims that there is no such file or directory. I had a lot of trouble with getting the echo command to work, as well. I found that if out of these lines:
export CONFIG_CFG80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUGFS=y
If the first and second line above were not uncommented in the config.mk file, I couldn't leave the last line above uncommented as well, or else makepkg would fail and give me an error. So originally I had only the 3rd and 4th lines above uncommented/inserted in my config.mk. With that configuration, I could not get the echo command to work, no matter what. Have you uncommented or inserted all of the above 5 lines into your config.mk?
After making sure all of the above 5 lines were in my config.mk, the echo command still didn't work, even if I preceded the command with sudo, or entered a su session. Bash would tell me that there was no such file or directory. I found that if I actually logged out of my normal user, and then logged back into the computer as root, the command would work. If your shell does not give you any feedback (particularly, "no such file or directory"), then the command worked. In order to get the command to run every time the computer boots, I used a systemd service, so that the command is issued as root. For some reason, it doesn't work if you put the command into /etc/profile.
Oh, and it would probably be helpful to mention that for the compat-drivers-patched package from the AUR, the PKGBUILD checks to see what your _selected_drivers variable is before compilation. If you set _selected_drivers=ath9k, your compile times will be much shorter.

Simple 'create a patch from subversion' script

This script was written for a specific use, in a specific environment:
here's the setup:
You have a (development) PHP project under subversion source control, and another, un-versioned (live) copy. You make changes to the development version, committing them to the repository as you go, until you're happy with your changes, then you want to copy any files that have changed since revision X (the last time you moved things across) from the development project into the live site.
This script gets any modified / added files from revision X upwards from the repository and puts them (preserving the directory structure) into a directory called 'patch-rX'. You can then just drop these into your live site to 'patch' it to the latest revision.
It's not particularly elegant, and it doesn't deal with files that are removed from the repository (I'd have to parse the 'status' bit of each line, find out what's happened to the file and so-on) but as a quick and dirty hack it works quite well.
run it like this:
make patch.sh REVISION URL
where REVISION is the lowest revision number to get changes from and URL is the url of your repository.
#!/bin/bash
#make patch.sh
#by Paul B
#[email protected]
#simple script to make a very simple patch from a repository
#call with make patch.sh REVISION URL
#REVISION should be the lowest revision to get changes from, script gets all changes from REVISION to HEAD
#URL is the url of your repository
#eg: make patch.sh 750 svn://redmine.tyrrellsystems.com/tms/tms_dev/Trunk
#first we need to get a list of changes since requested revision
svn diff -r$1 $2 --summarize > filelist.txt
#now remove the repo information from each line, so we're just left with the path from the root upwards
sed -i "s#$2# #g" filelist.txt
sed -i "s#M # #g" filelist.txt
sed -i "s#A # #g" filelist.txt
#now loop through what we've got
#create the relevant folder, and export the file into it
for i in $(cat filelist.txt);
do
filename=$(basename $i);
path=$(dirname $i);
mkdir -p patch-r$1/$path
svn export --force $2/$path/$filename patch-r$1/$path/$filename
echo "$filename";
done

This sounds similar to svn-export. Perhaps you would find that useful as well.

From:, To: and Subject: end up in email body - html email using sendmail

To the experts and the experienced:
I am trying to send email in html format from a Korn shell script on Solaris 10. The
email does get delivered and is displayed html-formatted, except that the From:, To: and
Subject: lines are displayed in the email body, rather than in the email header. I
would appreciate it very much if experts and the experienced could shed some light.
I use this command line to send the email:
sendmail -t [email protected] < testmail
The content of the testmail file is as follows:
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="frontier"
--frontier
Content-Type: text/plain
From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
Subject: test html email
This is a plain-text email.

--frontier
Content-Type: text/html
From: [email protected]<br/>
To: [email protected]<br/>
Subject: test html email<br/>
<h3 align="center">This is a html email</h3>
<p>This is the paragraph.</p>
<p>Newman</p>

The email received in Microsoft Outlook (html-formatted), looks like this:
From: [email protected]
To:
Subject:
From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
Subject: test html email
<h3 align="center">This is a html email</h3>
<p>This is the paragraph.</p>

Two things in the email need fixing:
1. All the From:, To: and Subject: lines are treated as part of the email body and are
displayed in the email body, rather than in the header as I wanted them to.
2. The From: line in the email header is the actual sender, not the Bursar.Office as I
put in the testmail file. This can be easily done when using SMTP (telnet to port 25)
or mailx.
How do I tell sendmail/the email client to display in the intended places the From:,
To: and Subject: information that I specified in the testmail file?
Many thanks!
Newman

I searched in google and found a solution:
mailx -r [email protected] -s "test html email
content-type: text/html" john.doe < testmail
The testmail file is a pure html file with one <html></html> element. The content embedded in this element is the body of the email, with all the usual tags you would like to use: <head>, <style>, <h3>, <p>, <ul>, etc.
The trick is piggy-backing a content-type with the subject. It seems to me this it to get the content-type into the email header rather than into the body. And that was exactly the problem I had.
The command lines was executed on Solaris 10. It works.
Hope this could be useful to someone who would encounter the same problem.
