Folks, 

Thanks everybody, too many to mention

1.  /usr/sbin/pkgchk -l -p /usr/bin/rwho

2.  grep rwho /var/sadm/install/contents


Now, what about PATCHES? 
(i.e. before applying a patch, how do I found out to what package it will be
applied to?)

Cheers

Loris

Sun Managers,

Is there a clever way to find out what package has installed a binary (i.e.
rwho) or to what package a patch applies to, so that I can choose whether to
apply the patch or remove the package?

Thanks in advance

Loris
