Norm ,

SFW cosolidation is fine.
As I heard, md5 is available in SUNWperl584core package. So, It will be 
perl 5.8.4. Does the package get updated when perl version is updated to 
5.10 ?
Also, Could you send me the link where I can follow procedure to be 
followed to get ECCN since the package is Encryption module.


Thanks
Spoorthy
