Installation Information

The associated patches and the instructions for installing the ShadowPassword bundle

are described in this section.

Required and optional enablement patches

The ShadowPassword bundle contains three kinds of products:

• The ShadowPW product - new ﬁles to support Shadow Passwords.

• The smallest necessary subset from the following corequisite patches: PHNE_23502,

PHCO_24402, PHCO_25526, PHCO_25568, PHCO_27036, PHCO_27037,

PHCO_27038, PHCO_27040, PHCO_27041, PHCO_27042, PHCO_27064,

PHCO_28192, PHCO_28194. (Any corequisite patch mentioned above will not be

installed if it has already been superseded by another patch on your machine.)

• A number of optional patches, depending on the conﬁguration of your system.

Patches PHSS_26492 and PHSS_26493 must be installed for you only if CDE is

present. Patch PHCO_28193 must be installed only if UUCP is present. Patch

PHCO_28176 must be installed only if the /usr/lbin/tsconvert command is

present. Patch PHCO_27035 deﬁnes the prototypes of new APIs. Patch PHCO_27909

updates the manual pages. If necessary, patch PHCO_23578 updates the Software

Distributor.

NOTE An optional patch will not be installed if the underlying product has been removed from

the system. For example, if the product UUCP has been removed, then PHCO_28193 will

not be installed. If the UUCP product is installed at some later point, then in order to

ensure correct functioning of the uucp command in shadow mode, the patch

PHCO_28193 must be installed as well.
