Patch Name:  PHNE_1843

Patch Description: This patch fixes the bug that causes the "newer"
                   command to overwrite a newer file with an older
                   one, when the source file is not over a month
                   older than the target file.

After getting the patch onto your machine, unshar the patch
(sh PHNE_1843)

To install this patch do the following:
1) Run /etc/update (Note: you must be root to update a system).
2) Once in the update "Main Menu" move the highlighted line to "Change
   Source or Destination ->" and press "Return" or "Select Item".
3) Make sure the highlighted item in the "Change Source or Destination"
   window is "From Tape Device to Local System ...", then press "Return"
   or "Select Item".
4) You should now be in the "From Tape Device to Local System" window.
   Change the "Source:  /dev/rmt/0m" to "Source: PHNE_1843.updt" (this
   assumes that you are in the directory where PHNE_1843.updt has been
   placed).
5) Press "Done".
6) From here on follow the standard directions for update.

The customized script that update runs will move the original software
to /system/PHNE_1843/orig.  HP recommends keeping this software there in
order to recover from any potential problems.  It is also recommended
that you move the PHNE_1843.text file to /system/PHNE_1843 to be
retained for future reference.

If you wish to put this patch on a magnetic tape and update from the
tape drive, dd a copy of the patch to the tape drive.  As an example
the following will create a copy of the patch that update can read:
dd if=PHNE_1843.updt of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2048
