java1.2 DST patching

[jerry1]

Is there any DST patches for java1.2.
Yes I know. Old java. I am running 3 versions
1.2 1.3 1.4. Backward compatability with old
tools.

1.3, 1.4 are patched. I am still trying to
identify what apps if any are using
/opt/java1.2/bin/java.

From what I have seen, HP is not going lower than 1.3

I recently saw on the SUN site that they were not going to do java 1.3.

For java 1.2, don't hold your breath!

add on to Rick's answer, Sun is supporting the DST change in the J2SE 1.3.1_18 or later version.

I would try to find out what is using the 1.2 version, try tools like lsof to hunt for apps.

Hope this helps,
