[rt-users] RT Migration to new HW and version

[Judy Gaukel]

I have a sort of related question here -- we have an embarrassingly old
version of RT on another server -- I am trying to install it on a new
(Solaris 10) machine and see
that openCSW no longer has mysql5rt --- and don't really know the tweaks
that make mysql5 "mysql5rt".
Where do people get their mysql5 for Solaris these days (gee - does anybody
still use solaris?!)...
Thanks,
  Judy
