As I said it is hard to get. Someone swiped my sets of NBU 3.4 and 3.2
from my desk ages ago.

You will be much, much better off if you upgrade though. Far fewer
problems. I would recommend going right to NBU 5.1 MP3A.

I tried.  They said they can't locate any (I take that as won't locate
any).
Nothing..  and patches.. forget it.  We were patched up a few levels
already.
So if we could get both the media and patches it didn't make sense.

Get off of 3.4 and go straight to 5.x, do not stop at 4.5 unless you
must migrate
the image catalogs. =20

        Contact your SE. Some of the old timers still have the CDS for
3.4 and
        3.2 that they can burn. They are getting rare though.

        It also means they won't supply software though.  We tried to
get 3.4
        software for Solaris, with patches and they wouldn't supply it.
