[daip] couple of questions

Hi,

Now that my system is upgraded to Solaris 10 and I have a lot more disk 
space, I want ot re-install aips.  My previous AIPS files are all 
present, but all symbolic links got destroyed in copying things.  Will 
that cause a problem if I simply copy the new distribution and follow 
the usual procedure for installing a new distribution, or should I 
recreate the symbolic links?

Solaris 10 is supposed to be binary compatible with Solaris 8.  I 
realize that some fumbling around may be unavoidable because some other 
things don't work like they used to or are stored in different places.)

I backed up all data and deleted it so I don't have to worry about old 
data catalogs.

Pat
