Hello again, fellow HP'er:

Well, after using the "Download" button on the HP Web Site for each Pacth vs using the "http//....etc
method AND using Reflection Transfer form a hard drive vs a network drive, all patches loaded successfully. At least they are merrily loading via Patch/ix as we speak.

Tks for the bandwidth.

I hope someone can give you a canonical answer, but if I had to take a
flying guess, I'm curious * why * DTSFDW7A is a bytestream file. Not that I
really have a clue about what its attributes should be, but shouldn't it be
an ordinary binary STD file? 

I'm about to leave, so cannot correspond with you on this. Feel free to ask
on list about this specifically, if you think that might be it, but don't
mention my name. I would rather risk being right and not get credit, than
risk being wrong and having a few hundred folks know about it. :-)

The patch ID (SCO number) is  DTSFDW7A
The Patch Tool is             PATCHIX

Step 1: Converting the file from bytestream to MPE format.
Note that this may take several minutes on a large patch.


Step 2: Using STORE/RESTORE to unpack the file...

RESTORE  *unpkstor;@[log in to unmask]@;SHOW;GROUP=PATCHXL;ACCOUNT=SYS;CREATOR=MANAGER

FRI, OCT 26, 2001,  3:31 PM


restore *unpkstor;@[log in to unmask]@;show;group=patchxl;account=sys;creator=manager
RESTORE aborted because of error. (CIERR 1091)

Error restoring the fileset. STOREJCW = 6

THE FILE IS IN THE FOLLOWING FORMAT:

:LISTF @7@,2

ACCOUNT=  SYS         GROUP=  INSTALL 

FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX

DTSFDW7A            1B  BA     2941170 2147483647   1    11504  1  *


Any help appreciated as we're doing System Maintenance on Sunday.....
