[cobalt-security] disjunction: www.cobalt.com/support vs ftp.cobalt.sun.com

[Brian Reichert <reichert@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to catch up on the security patches and system upgrades
from:

  http://www.cobalt.com/support/download/raqxtr.eng.html

This page makes it clear that the patches need to be applied in
cronological order.

This page also references FTP access to the packages, ultimately to:

  ftp://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/pub/packages/raqxtr/eng

This site has eight more (older) packages than the website descibes.

Do these need to be applied as well (in order), or have they been
subsumed by the newer packages?

I'm having quite the time, as I'm forced to install all of these
by hand.  The buggy javascript of Cobalt's admin server bails out
on my browser, so I can't make use of the 'official' package
management system.  And, no other one is documented, that I can
find...

I'm presently utilizing the perl tools in /usr/sausalito/sbin/
directly...
