*IMPORTANT UPDATE* Changes to Solaris 8 and 9 Patch Access on SunSolve
-------------------------------------------------------------------
On March 31, 2007, Sun changed the way users access
Solaris 8 and 9 Software Updates (patches) to be consistent with the way
users access Solaris 10 Software Updates.
Users will still be required to have a Sun Online Account and accept
a Software License Agreement in order to access any Software Updates,
but in addition users will be required to purchase a Solaris Subscription
or Sun System Service Plan in order to access Solaris 8 and 9 Software Updates.
No Solaris Subscription or Sun System Service Plan will be required for security
patches and device drivers, which will remain available without charge.
