I recently applied the latest set of Solaris patches to our
firewall machine (using Solaris Managament Console + PatchPro).
But it then failed on reboot - verbose "usage" diagnostics from
(I think) the "ap" command during interface configuration,
other FW1 commands failing with Segmentation Fault + core
dumps.

Tried backing out the likely suspects - kernel patch, TCP patch
and a couple of others.  But made no difference so eventually had
to restore the entire system from a backup.

Anyone else seen this?  Is there a particular patch to blame?

System details: E220R server, Solaris 9, NGAI R55 HFA-13 (but
have since installed HFA-15 - might improve things...?)

Thanks in advance.


Simon Ashford.
