What you are asking is outside of my personal experience. I believe others have done what you seek.
Search the archives for proxy and linux (this is from memory) - if you do not find what you need, repost to this listserv and I'll see if I can find any clues in my old notes.

I'm needing that info for systems that are not on the internet. It would be nice to run this on a system that is not necessarily in sync with the system that I need to actually install the patch on. So for example if I'm running it on a system that has one of the req patches, but the system I actually install it on doesn't have that patch, than once I get the patch on the system to install it I'm missing one of the required patches. Unfortunately this is a pain for those of us who have systems not connected to the internet and can't easily get files back and forth due to security constraints. I guess I can put the xref and script on the machine in question but that isn't always an option either. I guess I could look at the script to modify it for my extreme case, because I see all deps listed in the xref, unless you have any other options.

I would expect the "-list" option to list missing dependencies. It depends on the patchdiag.xref file which has been known to contain errors. Here's an example: /var/tmp/pca --list 150400-01 Using /var/tmp/patchdiag.xref from Dec/08/14 Host: pdkermit (SunOS 5.10/Generic_150400-05/sparc/sun4v) List: 150400-01 (1/0) Patch IR CR RSB Age Synopsis ------ -- - -- --- --- ------------------------------------------------------- 150400 05 < 18 RS- 24 SunOS 5.10: Kernel Patch /var/tmp/pca --list 150400 Using /var/tmp/patchdiag.xref from Dec/08/14 Host: pdkermit (SunOS 5.10/Generic_150400-05/sparc/sun4v) List: 150400 (2/48) Patch IR CR RSB Age Synopsis ------ -- - -- --- --- ------------------------------------------------------- 150510 -- < 03 R-- 24 SunOS 5.10: /var/svc/manifest/system/sysidtool.xml patch 150400 05 < 18 RS- 24 SunOS 5.10: Kernel Patch (Note: the first run is using "150400-01" and the second is using "150400") Do you suspect a problem?

It is a legitimate e-mail. Will this script list all patch dependencies for a given patch? Thanks, Lenny
