Hi, >>We now support setting the security keys (at least from OBP; Solaris changes are needed to support doing so from Solaris).
ok Another question: From reading the manuals it seems possible to install ldm 1.1 on older Solaris Releases if the necessary patches are installed. But it' s not clear for me if I then can use all new features and have all bug fixes. Can we install the Solaris patches on our existing Solaris installations (using mostly Solaris 10 8/07) and install ldm 1.1 to get all new features or must we upgrade the installations to Solaris 10 10/8? regards Bernd Eric Sharakan wrote: > On Dec 24, 2008, at 2:17 PM, Bernd Schemmer wrote: > >> Hi Alex, >> >> just reading your blog : >> >>>> his release also includes a lot of other improvements and bug fixes. >> Among other: >>>> >>>> * WANboot Support >> >> What's new here?
