I installed Solaris 7 on a 220R with a DVD drive and applied the
Recommended patches. After this I cannot use the DVD drive. The
patch causing this is the above mentioned one and I think the problem
is the '/usr/sbin/rmmount'. Has anybody seen this before ? Any solution ?

I mailed a warning about this a couple of weeks ago.
I had exactly the same problem and after speaking to Sun support I was
asked to roll back the patches because rmmount gets broken. A new patch
cluster should be out soon 106541-15 which is supposed to fix it.
However, if you can live with a non-working DVD drive 106541-14 offers
significant fixes including the E-cache sc* for the processors

I got a 'rmmount' binary from Sun which fixed the problem
apparently.
Thanx.

1. Problem with Solaris 7 Kernel patch 106541-15 and catopen/catgets
[[ PLEASE DON'T SEND ME EMAIL COPIES OF POSTINGS ]]
In patch 106541-15 we've fixed the security problems for
the NLSPATH problems.
Unfortunately, we cannot fix this properly and have everything still
work exactly as before.
Chowning the files to root helps some; installing them in system
directories also. Not requiring NLSPATH to be set also helps.
I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean my:
"other applications which run under non-root user IDs can not run suid program"
I think we changed it such that suid programs can only open root-owned
catalogues. I'd need to check.
I did the code and it's pretty fascist.
I'd need to know a bit more about what you're doing. That way
I can either explain to you why what you're doing is a possible
security hole or whether we're perhaps too strict.
