I tried that and it didn't work because some of the
binaries didn't get installed and caused signal 11's
???  So what I did was scp /bin/* /usr/bin/* /sbin/*
/usr/sbin/* /usr/libexec/*  Certainly not the most
efficient solution and I probably shouldn't have had
to do it but I had 4 servers stuck and only one up to
dade and working with the changes and I just wanted to
get through this and cut my losses :-) (But that is
another story.)  You might want to have a cdrom or
another machine that is up to date and readily
accessable, just in case.

Good luck,
