patch install problem

[dictum9]

I have never seen anything like this, any idea what I can do?


swinstall -s /var/tmp/patches/depot


ERROR: Access denied to root@depot to start agent on
unregistered depot "/tmp/patches/PHSS_35435.depot". No
(i)nsert permission on host. 11/15/06 07:24:36 MST

Hi:

Try restarting the 'swagentd' daemon:

# /usr/sbin/swagentd -r

Regards!

James Ferguson,

Restarting the daemon was precisely the solution.
