When I discussed hotfixing with SAS® Technical Support, we came to the conclusion that applying the bundled hotfixes for v8 seemed the best bet. These need to be applied to both the client and the server and the next question was: in which order, client first or server first?

For version 8, it doesn’t matter. For version 9, check with SAS Tech Support!
