I can't count how often I had to login to SunSolve recently because it seems to time out authentication quickly. Even if my password was "Jdh3k9#h:j!gHJsjqp%$XzmlNaQ" I would remember it by now. mp. -- Systems Administrator | Institute of Scientific Computing | Univ. of Vienna | http://www.par.univie.ac.at/solaris/pca/ Patch Check Advanced | Analyze, download and install patches for Sun Solaris |

I suspect it's (a) not you and (b) because increasingly large numbers of machines are downloading patches etc directly off the net and it's overwhelming the machines and/or bandwidth behind sunsolve. --tim |

Does Sun know about this? Setting up *more* regional patch database hosts around the globe might leverage the issue, what do you think? For anonymous ftp access, they should implement GeoIP [maxmind.com] sort of thing. Setting up proper sun update connection proxy for internal machines [sol 10] might do the trick. -- Raqueeb Hassan Bangladesh |
