I have the correct 6.5.6 update and I've unpacked it locally.  But every 
permutation of the install scripts I've tried to run eventually generate some 
kind of an error or another and it either bails out early, or worse, I end up 
with a partially installed update.  Can you tell me the syntax you're using?
