Solaris (2.)7 patch list

[dfrasnel () CSEE WVU EDU (Daniel J. Frasnelli)]

        As I examine my inbox, I find no less than six new messages
telling me about the patches available for Solaris 7 with regards to a
previous message about the ff.core exploit under Sol 7.  I had been
relying on patchdiag to analyze our machines, but that appears to have
been misplaced trust.  Mea culpa.  Truth is, I took a peek at Sunsolve's
web site after sending the ff.core message and discovered the patches
which everyone continues to tell me about.
        For the benefit of other people on the list using patchdiag and in
hopes of stemming the flow of flame/helpful e-mail to my account, I
present the patch list.  Yes, someone already posted a similar list.. here
it is again for people who don't read messages closely.
