Confirming patch kit level...

Hello...

  In reading through the security patch info, it says that you must have

> Prerequisite: 5.0A with Patch Kit 3 (BL17) installed

  I used dupatch to determine my patch installations, and I got:

        Patches installed on the system came from following patch kits:
        --------------------------------------------------------------

        - T64V50AAS0001-20000718 OSF505
        - T64V50AAS0002-20001004 OSF505
        - T64V50AAS0003-20010523 OSF505

  I'm assuming that - T64V50AAS0003-20010523 OSF505 - is the
patch kit 3 and it is safe to patch - is that correct? I'm unsure of
the BL17 part, though.

  I noticed a post on the list about doing this patch on a non patchkit 3
system, and a kernel build failure, hence my concern over getting it
right.

  Thanks for the info you can send me....
