Potential BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) security vulnerabilities 
have been reported to HP that may result in buffer overflows, unauthorized

potential security vulnerabilities may be in the form of local and remote 
security domain risks. 

The following potential security vulnerabilities have been corrected:

The Patch Kit Installation Instructions and the Patch Summary and Release
Notes documents provide patch kit installation and removal instructions
and a summary of each patch. Please read these documents prior to 
installing patches on your system.
 

INSTALLATION NOTES:

1) Install this kit with the dupatch utility that is included in the patch
   kit. You may need to baseline your system if you have manually changed
   system files on your system. The dupatch utility provides the baselining
   capability.

2) The integrated ERP kits provided in this EA contain the corrections from 
   SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u, and can be installed by customers who have or 
   have not installed the SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u ERP. The kits indicated 
   in this EA are built so that they will install over the SSRT1-68u and 
   SSRT1-69u corrections. However, installation will be blocked if any other 
   patches have been installed that affect the files delivered in the 
   SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u kits. 

3) This ERP kit will NOT install over any Customer Specific Patches (CSPs)
   that have file intersections with this ERP kit. Contact your normal
   Service Provider for assistance if the installation of this ERP kit is
   blocked by any of your installed CSPs.


INSTALLATION PREREQUISITES:

You must have installed Tru64 UNIX 5.0A PK3 (BL17) before installing 
this Early Release Patch Kit.
