Hi everyone,

Sorry, this is a bit off topic and I couldn't find anywhere where people
really knows what they're doing. :-)

I would like to harden a solaris 7 box on intel. This is just the box for my
testing at home. But I would like to use it as if it was customer's solaris
7 box on intel too. Something like simulate a customer's running solaris
server. I would like to patch but I don't know how. I know the patchadd tool
but the patch I've downloaded ends with a .zip.

I am also concerned about patching coz it might screw up everything. So, you
can suggest of something before I do the patching like backing up
configuration. Yeah, what directories or files should I back up?

I've also found a tool, Titan, which is used for hardening. Is this better
than YASSP? Or can I run both of them after the other? I also went to Sun
site and learned about PatchDiag tool. This tool will be able to help me
with the patching. Problem is, it's commercial. How will I obtain this tool?
I called Sun but I got lost with the automatic attendant.

Lastly, please tell me what files/directories to backup so that in case
something goes wrong, I can revert back to the old configuration. Yeah, what
tool will I use for recovery?

Thanks. Please help me.

Ronneil
