Question Please

Nobody's Hero — Mon, 28 Jan 2002 15:26:09 GMT

I have two questions:
1) how do you find out your current patch level on an N4000

2) how can I find out the version of tcp/ip ?

Thanks,
Bob

There is no specific patch level version that you can check. However you can do ..

# swlist -l fileset | grep PH

to see what patches are installed.

For TCP/IP, do this ..

# grep -i ipversion /usr/conf/netinet/ip.h

Hi bob,

1) swlist -lproduct - will give you information about all applied patches. OR swlist -lfileset. Compare this with the latest HP's patch release.

2) The installed version of tcp/ip is contained in the following file, which is the ip header file:

/usr/conf/netinet/ip.h

HTH,

The best command to use is; swlist -l bundle (not -l fileset or -l product). This gives you a nice short listing of all installed bundles, one or more of which should be patch bundles. eg;

# Initializing...
# Contacting target "palm2"...
#
# Target: palm2:/

As you can see from this listing there are lots of patch bundles. The latest ones are the Quality Pack bundles (see its dated Sep 2001).
To see individual patches use; swlist -l fileset | grep PH
but this will list hundreds of them. Better to use one of the larger bundles of patches as per above.
