Is it okay to "keep patchSG0007217" and proceed with the install in this case?

'incomplete base history' usually means you've freed up disk space with 'versions removehist' or similar. In that case you need the openssl software from the distribution CDs before you can install a patch.

It turns out that when reset, the WD33C93 defaults to a SCSI ID of 0, and it was simpler to leave it that way... -- Dave Olson, in comp.sys.sgi

What I had to do to correct this was to remove 7217 and then install 7249; weird; but that worked.

Guys : would you not say this is a case where using the openly-available gnu stuff is preferable ? That's all SGI is doing anyhow. Using nekoware or building your own security-related apps would seem to be preferable now that SGI is pretty much worthless.
