Thanks for the quick response. Before you dig them up, do you think it's a
sensible thing to do? Or would I be better taking the opportunity to
upgrade to Solaris 10? I've got an Ultra 2 with dual 400 MHz processors
and 1280 MB RAM. My most used applications are Mozilla 1.5, Gimp 1.2 and
Apache. I'm just trying to assess whether I'll see a big slow down if I
upgrade.

Best wishes,

Chris
