Hi!

I'm running Solstice Firewall-1 ver 2.1 on a Solaris 2.5 platform. This host
is my bastion host in my firewall configuration.
I guess there are security holes (there always are) in Sol 2.5 and need to know
which patches I should use and what securtiy-holes there are in the OS. 
Is there holes in Firewall-1 as well?
Is there anything else I should think of using Sol. 2.5 on my bastion host?

My configuration looks like this:
