Problem Description:

        This patch fixes a bug in the libsuntool library.
	The problem this patch fixes is the 64 file descriptors
	limit under sunview applications.
	In O.S. 4.1 the system hard limit is 256 file descriptors
	and this patch would allow the use of all the 
	file descriptors in the sunview application.

Fix description:

        This patch includes 3 suntool libraries you need to replace on
        your system :
	libsuntool.a
	libsuntool.sa.0.50
	libsuntool.so.0.50


Install instructions:

Please read the following instructions carefully before you load the
tape. Don't run sunview while doing the following procedures

        1. cd /tmp
	   (You'll need 2MB disk space for the installation, if you
	    don't have this disk space in the partition /tmp is located please
	    choose another directory that would fit this disk space
	    need)
	
        2. Extract the files from tape :
	   (The tar command is one unix command eventhough it is
	    printed on two different lines in this README file).
	   For sun4 users:
                tar -xvf /dev/rst0 libsuntool.a-sun4
			libsuntool.sa.0.50-sun4 libsuntool.so.0.50-sun4 README

	   For sun3/3x users:
		tar -xvf /dev/rst0 libsuntool.a-sun3
			libsuntool.sa.0.50-sun3 libsuntool.so.0.50-sun3 README

	3. cd /usr/lib
        4. mv libsuntool.a       libsuntool.a.SAVE
	   mv libsuntool.sa.0.50 libsuntool.sa.0.50.SAVE
	   mv libsuntool.so.0.50 libsuntool.so.0.50.SAVE

	5. For sun4 users:
	   mv /tmp/libsuntool.a-sun4 	   libsuntool.a
	   mv /tmp/libsuntool.sa.0.50-sun4 libsuntool.sa.0.50
	   mv /tmp/libsuntool.so.0.50-sun4 libsuntool.so.0.50

	  For sun3/3x users: 
	   mv /tmp/libsuntool.a-sun3       libsuntool.a
           mv /tmp/libsuntool.sa.0.50-sun3 libsuntool.sa.0.50
           mv /tmp/libsuntool.so.0.50-sun3 libsuntool.so.0.50

	6. start sunview
           (in case of troubles restore the original libraries
	    by cp/mv the lib*.SAVE version onto the real libraries
	    name)
