        I am running 6.0 MP1 and the Sun boxed is patched with the
latest patches I am not sure whether I should be  looking for a
"specific" patch to address this issue. That "specific"patch may not be
at the current level.

        Thanks

                I don't have much experience with legato but I would
make sure that i'm running NB 6.0 MP1 and that the Solaris 8 Patches are
upto date
