SUMMARY: Quick Patches Question

Hi,

I had one reply that suggested that i call compaq
support. (thanks). As it turned out, there is a work
around. I had also referenced wrong patchname in
initial question, should have been
T64V40GB17-C0010410-15273-ES-20020827

Anyhow, WORKAROUND::

KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE PATCH KIT:

1) This patch kit does not automatically supersede the
following Tru64 UNIX
   patches:
        - Tru64 UNIX Security Vulnerability SSRT1-41U,
SSRT0742U, SSRT0759U
          T64V40GB17-C0009303-12856-E-20020115.tar

    WORKAROUND:

    The csh in the SSRT2275 4.0G ERP kit contains the
csh fixes included
    in the SSRT1-41U 4.0G ERP kit. The following
workaround enables
    SSRT2275 patch 4.0G C104.10 to automatically
supersede the SSRT1-41U
    patch 4.0G C93.03.

    As root:
     1) untar T64V40GB17-C0010410-15273-ES-2002082

     2) cd patch_kit/Tru64_UNIX_V4.0G/kit/instctrl

     3) edit OSFPATC0019006445.ctrl

        replacing this line:
PATCH_SUPERSEDE="OSFPATC0019000445"
        with this line:
PATCH_SUPERSEDE="OSFPATC0019000445 OSFPATC0009303445"

        save the edits
        exit the file

        WARNING: do not make a copy of this file or do
anything other
                 file creation in this directory. If
you want to make
                 a copy of the original .ctrl file,
copy it to a
                 subdirectory in /tmp.

     4) cd ../../../

     5) install the patch kit again

All is well.

_Thanks

Richard
