Topic: Applying Updates quetion

[Dave]

Could someone Help me:

     I have determined that one of my e-smith servers is running version 5.1.2.
Note: The only way I could confirm this was by runing the ps -ef command and
looking at this process line!

usr/bin/whiptail --clear --backtitle   Mitel Networks SME Server V5.1.2 Copyright 2

     The question I have is this,  I am concerned about the slapper virus which is
attacking the older versions of OpenSSL, and have tried to apply just the patch
to fix this.  I downloaded the rpm from the ftp link for v5.1.2
ie:    openssl-0.9.6-13.i386.rpm

after running     rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs *.rpm
                       /sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
 
mysystem hung, I then rebooted and it was totally screwed up.  The web interface stopped working etc.  luckily I had a tape backup and was able to recover back to
square one.

     My question is this,  do you have to install all the updates listed for this version
of e-smith in order for the openssl patch to work.  Is that what made my system crash?  That's the only thing I can think of that cause the above to occur.

  This is the list of updates mentioned for version 5.1.2 obviously I skipped a few!

   5.1.2/Update3/RPMS
       SMEServer-5.1.2_Update3-01.noarch.rpm
       apache-1.3.22-6es1.i386.rpm
       libtool-libs-1.3.5-8.i386.rpm
       libxml2-2.4.2-1.i386.rpm
       openssh-3.1p1-2es1.i386.rpm
       openssh-clients-3.1p1-2es1.i386.rpm
       openssh-server-3.1p1-2es1.i386.rpm
       openssl-0.9.6-13.i386.rpm
       php-4.0.6-7es4.i386.rpm
       php-imap-4.0.6-7es4.i386.rpm
       php-ldap-4.0.6-7es4.i386.rpm
       php-mysql-4.0.6-7es4.i386.rpm
       pspell-0.11.2-2.i386.rpm



Thanks in advance

Patrick, I have Dan Brown's php 4.1.2 contrib loaded on my SME 5.1.2 server.  Do I have to install the php 4.0.6 modules to complete the update 3 install?

Thanks!
