Symptoms:
	PHNE_24512:
	1. JAGae26628 / SR 8606262293:
	   xntpd can cause performance problem.

	2. JAGac20260 / SR 8606113990:

Defect Description:
	PHNE_24512:
	1. JAGae26628 / SR 8606262293:
	Description:
	   xntpd can cause performance degradation under certain
	   circumstances.
	Resolution:
	   The performance problem is now fixed.

	2. JAGac20260 / SR 8606113990:
	Description:
	   The command "/sbin/init.d/xntpd stop" does not stop the
	   xntpd daemon due to improper process filtering in the
	   xntpd script.

	   stops the xntpd daemon.

	------------------------------------------------------------
	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_24512

	5. Run swinstall to install the patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
			  -s /tmp/PHNE_24512.depot

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in 
	/var/adm/sw/save/PHNE_24512.  If you do not wish to retain a
	copy of the original software, include the patch_save_files
	option in the swinstall command above:

		-x patch_save_files=false

	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_24512.text file is 
	available in the product readme:

		swlist -l product -a readme -d @ /tmp/PHNE_24512.depot

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

		dd if=/tmp/PHNE_24512.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k

Special Installation Instructions:

	When this patch is installed with other software or patches
	that will cause a system reboot, and the xntpd daemon is
	enabled in the system, then the xntpd daemon may not start
	properly after the system reboot following the initial
	installation.  To ensure proper operation of xntpd(1M)
	following the initial reboot, execute the following commands
	after the system reboot to start the daemon properly:

	  /sbin/init.d/xntpd stop
	  /sbin/init.d/xntpd start
