Try the SPident command. This may or may not give you the results you want. If you haven't applied the SP3 directly, but rather just maintained your system using YOU, SPident will tell you that your system is not up-to-date. :~ sudo SPident CONCLUSION: System is NOT up-to-date! found

In that case, run SPident - (yes, 4 v) and try to understand which packages were not updated correctly. You need only to have one conflicting package to receive a not up-to-date status. On 9/20/06, Mark D Pace [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Try the SPident command. This may or may not give

As I mentionned earlier, you might want to run SPident - to check which packages were not correctly updated, then run the update manually (rpm -Fvh myfile.rpm). You should be able to work your way around with this. On 9/20/06, LJ Mace [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I tried the command and

Mace, I had the same results as you several months ago after using YAST to apply online updates up through SP3. YAST did not automatically select all of our packages. Here's how I was able to get clean results from the SPident command. 1. SPident -vvv (like Dominic stated) 2. Note the

You should log on to the Novell site and download the patch manually. From there, upgrade by using rpm -Fvh yourfile.rpm . On 20-Sep-2006, at 16:11, Ifurung, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: One problem I have now is, Yast/YOU does not offer the patch that is supposed to resolve the not uptodate
