      it is the SunSolve Document infodoc/11975 and is available with
      SunSolve registration (we don't have it). The latest version
      of the document that I got is Revision 1.2 dated December 21,
      1995. Apparently the later version (Feb) is already available.

      I don't want to send out this document to entire sun-managers
      list. If you need it and cannot download it from network, let
      me know and I will forward to you what I have.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD BE DONE:

      DNS should be patched. Security patches should be installed if you
      want your system to be secure. The full information about patching
      your version of Solaris, as well as Sun Security Cookbook and
      several others documents can be found on SunSolve WWW server.

Thanks for Help.
