	------------------------------------------------------------
	1. 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_17434

	5. Run swinstall to install the patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
			  -s /tmp/PHNE_17434.depot

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in 
	/var/adm/sw/save/PHNE_17434.  If you do not wish to retain a
	copy of the original software, use the patch_save_files option:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
			  -x patch_save_files=false -s /tmp/PHNE_17434.depot

	WARNING: If patch_save_files is false when a patch is installed,
		 the patch cannot be deinstalled.  Please be careful
		 when using this feature.

	For future reference, the contents of the PHNE_17434.text file is 
	available in the product readme:

		swlist -l product -a readme -d @ /tmp/PHNE_17434.depot

	To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
	tape drive, use the command:

		dd if=/tmp/PHNE_17434.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k

Special Installation Instructions:
	PHNE_17434: Note that some netstat options may return
	            inconsistent output when used on core dumps
	            created from kernels with the patch
	            PHNE_17017, the 11.00 cumulative ARPA
	            Transport patch.  netstat will run consistently
	            on live kernels with any patch level.

	            An example of inconsistent output occurs when
	            "netstat -rn" is run on a core file created
	            from a kernel with PHNE_17017.  The output is
	            similar to the expected output, except that the
	            "Interface" fields will all be "*" instead of
	            the correct interface name (i.e. lan0, etc.).
