Ok, another couple of points about the alpha, it really doesn't like having
anything hanging off it's external scsi port. I had to use a next to get 
the tar ball of patches off the tape. Mustang, your DAT drive is in the 
machine room next to the console of the alpha. 

Anyway, after getting the patches off the tape at about 1 this morning
I had a lot of fun reading and then using dupatch. Oh why oh why does the
system check the validity of the patches about 6 times during the install, 
3 or so during the preinstallation and the 3 or so times again during the 
actual patch install prorcess. Lots of fun. Anyway, finished at 4:30 this
morning. *sigh*

See Ya
Simon
