    The HP-UX Security Patch Matrix is available here:

    Or via anonymous ftp:
    <ftp://ftp.itrc.hp.com/export/patches/hp-ux_patch_matrix/>

    The HP-UX Security Patch Matrix, updated daily, categorizes
    security patches by platform/OS release, and by Bulletin topic.
    The Security Patch Check tool completely automates the process of
    reviewing the Security Patch Matrix for HP-UX 11.XX Versions.

    NOTE: Installing patches listed in the Security Patch Matrix will
    completely implement the RESOLUTION in the Security Bulletin
    _only_ if there are no MANUAL ACTIONS included.

    The Security Patch Check tool can also verify that a Security
    Bulletin RESOLUTION has been implemented on HP-UX 11.XX Versions
    provided that no MANUAL ACTIONS were included. The Security Patch
    Check tool cannot verify patches implemented via product upgrade.
