The hot fix package that is downloaded is in compressed tar format.  The name 
of the tar file is 82ih21s2.tar.Z, and it contains the following files:

      * objspawn.82ih21
             the replacement other containing the hot fix

      * saspelsk.82ih21
             the replacement executable containing the hot fix

      * saspelsk
             a link to saspelsk.82ih21

      * 82ih21s2.aud
             a hot fix identifier file that will allow Technical Support
             to determine which fixes have been applied to a system

      * 82ih21s2.txt
             a copy of these installation instructions; this file is installed
             in !SASROOT/hotfix/doc 



IMPORTANT NOTE(S):

1.  You must have Release 8.2 (TS2M0) installed on your system before 
    applying this hot fix.

2.  All currently active SAS sessions, daemons, spawners and servers must 
    be terminated before applying this hot fix.


AFTER DOWNLOADING:

The following instructions describe the steps for installing the files listed 
above.  In this example, !SASROOT, the directory where Release 8.2 (TS2M0) is 
installed, is:

      /usr/lib/sas8


STEP 1:
Assuming the tar file is downloaded to the user's HOME directory, follow 
these procedures to install the package.

      $> cd /usr/lib/sas8
      $> uncompress -c $HOME/82ih21s2.tar  |  tar -xf -


STEP 2:
Once the tar command is complete, the following line must be added as the 
first line of the !SASROOT/sasv8.cfg file:

      -path !SASROOT/hotfix/sasexe

Do not modify any existing -PATH options in the !SASROOT/sasv8.cfg file.


STEP 3:
Change the ownership (using the chown command) and permissions (using
the chmod command) on the files in the !SASROOT/hotfix/sasexe directory 
to match the ownership and permissions on the files in the 
!SASROOT/sasexe directory.


STEP 4:
The tar command will extract the file objspawn.82ih21 into the
!SASROOT/utilities/bin directory.  To replace the current objspawn
executable follow these steps (assuming you are still in the
/usr/lib/sas8 directory).

      $> cd utilities/bin

      $> chown myuserid objspawn

        [where myuserid is a non-root userid]

      $> chmod 755 objspawn

      $> mv objspawn objspawn.TS2M0

      $> mv objspawn.82ih21 objspawn


If the file objspawn.TS2M0 already exists, skip the first mv command.


STEP 5:
Last, in order to authenticate a client's identity and check the client's
authority to access resources, some setup is required by the root
account. This setup changes the setuid permissions of file in
!SASROOT/utilities/bin to root.

This can be accomplished by executing the following commands:

      $> su root

      $> cd !SASROOT/utilities/bin

      $> chown root objspawn

      $> chmod 4755 objspawn

      $> exit



This completes the installation of hot fix 82IH21 on Solaris.
