         AFFECTED VERSIONS

         The following is a list by HP-UX revision of
         affected filesets and the fileset revision or

         system has an affected version, search the
         output of "swlist -a revision -l fileset"
         for an affected fileset, then determine if
         a fixed revision or the applicable patch is
         installed.

     B. Recommended solution

    **REVISED 10**
        Note: If the preliminary patches, PHNE_28929.depot or
              PHNE_28930.depot have been installed, they must
              be removed with swremove before installing the
              general release patches PHNE_28982 (11.00) or
              PHNE_28983 (11.11) or subsequent.

        Remove the preliminary patches with swremove
        if they are on the system:

          PHNE_28929.depot #B.11.00
          PHNE_28930.depot #B.11.11

         Install the appropriate patches.

              B.10.20 - PHCO_26158
              B.11.00 - PHNE_28982
              B.11.00 - PHCO_28480
              B.11.11 - PHNE_28983
              B.11.11 - PHCO_28481
     --> B.11.22 - PHNE_29449

     --> In addition download and install the appropriate
     --> library files for B.11.04 and B.11.22 as described
     --> below.

         System: hprc.external.hp.com (192.170.19.51)

          For B.11.04
          ====================================
          #DIR=[path to new files]
          #cd /usr/lib

          #cp $DIR/libnsl.1.32_11.00 libnsl.1.new
          #cp $DIR/libnsl.a.32_11.00 libnsl.a.new

          #chmod 555 libc.1.new

          #chown bin:bin libnsl.1.new
          #chown bin:bin libnsl.a.new
          #chown bin:bin libc.1.new

          #mv libnsl.1 libnsl.1.orig
          #mv libnsl.a libnsl.a.orig
          #mv libc.1 libc.1.orig

          #mv libnsl.1.new libnsl.1
          #mv libnsl.a.new libnsl.a
          #mv libc.1.new libc.1

          #cd /usr/lib/pa20_64

          #cp $DIR/libnsl.1.64_11.00 libnsl.1.new
          #cp $DIR/libnsl.a.64_11.00 libnsl.a.new

          #chmod 444 libnsl.a.new

          #chown bin:bin libnsl.1.new
          #chown bin:bin libnsl.a.new

          #mv libnsl.1 libnsl.1.orig
          #mv libnsl.a libnsl.a.orig

          #mv libnsl.1.new libnsl.1
          #mv libnsl.a.new libnsl.a

          After this, any applications that use libnsl.1 must be
          restarted. Any applications that use libnsl.a must
          be relinked and restarted.
          Any applications that use libc.1 must be restarted.

          Rebooting is the recommended way to restart the applications
          using libnsl.1 or libc.1.

          For B.11.22
          ====================================
     --> Install PHNE_29449 or subsequent and:

          #DIR=[path to new files]
          #cd /usr/lib
          #cp $DIR/libc.1 libc.1.new
          #chmod 555 libc.1.new
          #chown bin:bin libc.1.new
          #mv libc.1 libc.1.orig
          #mv libc.1.new libc.1

          After this, any applications that use libnsl.so.1 must be
          restarted.

          Rebooting is the recommended way to restart the applications
          using libnsl.1 or libc.1.

     C. To subscribe to automatically receive future NEW HP Security
        Bulletins from the HP IT Resource Center via electronic
        mail, do the following:

        Use your browser to get to the HP IT Resource Center page
        at:

           http://itrc.hp.com

        Use the 'Login' tab at the left side of the screen to login
        using your ID and password. Use your existing login or the
        "Register" button at the left to create a login, in order to
        gain access to many areas of the ITRC. Remember to save the
        User ID assigned to you, and your password.

        In the left most frame select "Maintenance and Support".

        Under the "Notifications" section (near the bottom of
        the page), select "Support Information Digests".

        To -subscribe- to future HP Security Bulletins or other
        Technical Digests, click the check box (in the left column)
        for the appropriate digest and then click the "Update
        Subscriptions" button at the bottom of the page.

        or

        To -review- bulletins already released, select the link
        (in the middle column) for the appropriate digest.

        NOTE: Using your itrc account security bulletins can be
              found here:
        http://itrc.hp.com/cki/bin/doc.pl/screen=ckiSecurityBulletin

        To -gain access- to the Security Patch Matrix, select
        the link for "The Security Bulletins Archive". (near the
        bottom of the page) Once in the archive the third link is
        to the current Security Patch Matrix. Updated daily, this
        matrix categorizes security patches by platform/OS release,
        and by bulletin topic. Security Patch Check completely
        automates the process of reviewing the patch matrix for
        11.XX systems. Please note that installing the patches
        listed in the Security Patch Matrix will completely
        implement a security bulletin _only_ if the MANUAL ACTIONS
        field specifies "No."

        The Security Patch Check tool can verify that a security
        bulletin has been implemented on HP-UX 11.XX systems providing
        that the fix is completely implemented in a patch with no
        manual actions required. The Security Patch Check tool cannot
        verify fixes implemented via a product upgrade.

        For information on the Security Patch Check tool, see:
        http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/
        displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=B6834AA

        The security patch matrix is also available via anonymous
        ftp:

        ftp://ftp.itrc.hp.com/export/patches/hp-ux_patch_matrix/

        On the "Support Information Digest Main" page:
