All are good suggestions. We are not going to be allowed to install anything on the server. And we are not going to be allowed to install anything on the desktop unless it is on the approved application list and has been through a security review. None of the free apps will qualify security-wise. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Grooms, Frederick W Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 10:38 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: IM Patch 7 Installer?

If so, you can use an ssh client package such as Putty (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/) along with an X terminal such as xming (http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/) to run X applications on your desktop over SSH. --- J.T.

The IM 7.03 Patch 7 Release notes say: ------------------------------------- Starting with Patch 005, the process of installing patches for the BMC Remedy ITSM suite of applications has been automated through the introduction of a GUI driven patch installation wizard. For all platforms, you must run the patch installer from the same system that is running the AR System server. ------------------------------------- And later on it says: ------------------------------------- Run the patch installer. ! Windows.patch007.exe ! UNIX.patch007.bin A splash screen appears while the installer initializes. After initialization, the BMC Remedy ITSM Patch Installer window appears. ------------------------------------- I do not have any sort of access to these systems except command line/terminal access via Putty. The vast majority of my customers are using Sun/Unix enterprise servers. Naturally we have no access beyond command line. We have no x-windows or emulators. Given the security level of things I work on (relatively low in the government scale) we are NOT unique at all in this configuration. Am I missing something here? Did BMC just make it impossible for us to install the patches?
