Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHNE_11728 Symptoms: PHNE_11728: * Certain signals cause rlogin to dump core. * Change in rlogind logging. Timeout login events no longer logged. PHNE_10638: * rlogin dies intermittently due to signal "SIGUSR1". PHNE_8807: * Environment variable TERM overflow in rlogin. * Time stamp of rlogind's log message for login failure is set to EST/EDT. * Connection closes when any child process of rlogind receives a SIGSTOP. Defect Description: PHNE_11728: * Certain signals are not trapped by rlogin and these cause rlogin to dump core. Now, rlogin exits gracefully on receiving these signals. * Change in rlogind logging. Timeout login events no longer logged. PHNE_10638: * rlogin dies intermittently because of SIGUSR1. This occurs because of some timing problems. PHNE_8807: * Environment variable TERM overflow in rlogin. * Time stamp of rlogind's log message for login failure is set to EST/EDT. * rlogind terminates when a SIGSTOP is issued to any of it's child processes. The daemon receives a SIGCHLD which causes rlogind to terminate.

Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHNE_11728 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_11728.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHNE_11728.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHNE_11728. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHNE_11728.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHNE_11728.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: Be sure to have no rlogin or rlogind sessions running when you install this patch; otherwise, you'll have to move the files around by hand.
