    So it makes more sense to apply the right patches to login, and not
    patches to telnetd.  If you only want to install the necessary patches
    to plug this specific hole, very quickly, use these:
    
    solaris 8 login fix: 111085-02
    solaris 7 login fix: 112300-01
    solaris 2.6 login fix: 105665-04
    solaris 2.5.1 login fix: 106160-02
    
    use patchadd.  A reboot is not necessary.
    
    During your normal maintenance window you should install the rest of the
    recommended patches.
    
    CHeers,
    Gert-Jan.
