======================================================================
REQUIRED PATCHES (other patches that are MANDATORY to install WITH this patch):

FILES TO BE DISTRIBUTED:
/sbin/init.d/route

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
# cd to /sbin/init.d

Save the old script before coping the new one in place.
# mv route route.save

Copy the new script in place.
# cp /patches/route .

Set permissions and owner on the new script.

# chown bin:bin route

PROBLEM:  ( HPAQ88A35 ) (Patch ID: <Ignore this> )
This patch fixes a problem in which the ping command can time out
after invoking the "rcinet restart" command.

To reproduce the problem:

1) Run the tcpdump utility on the lan interface and filter on ICMP traffic.
2) Stop and restart internet services using the command "rcinet restart".
   You may have to restart services more than once to obtain an output
   similar to the following while invoking the ping command;

	10:25:50.802272 0.0.0.0 > 137.35.226.10: icmp: echo request
	10:25:51.802272 0.0.0.0 > 137.35.226.10: icmp: echo request
	10:25:52.802272 0.0.0.0 > 137.35.226.10: icmp: echo request
	10:25:53.802272 0.0.0.0 > 137.35.226.10: icmp: echo request

Notice the source field contains 0.0.0.0.  The destination cannot return
the ICMP echo reply to this address.  The ping command will timeout and 
report 100% packet loss.  The ping command can fail for a local destination 
as well as a remote host.

1d)	Internal description
When routing is shutdown, the in_ifaddr entry is supposed to be discarded. In
reality, the entry was being reused when routing was restarted by the script.

If the route tables were not flushed after stopping routed, the failure
mentioned above can be encountered.  When the route tables were flushed,
the failure never occurred in my testing or the customer's testing.
