Following the instructions for applying the telnet daemon patch released
yesterday to fix up the root exploit with the current daemon, I'm stuck as
to what to enter at this point:

ns1# patch -p < /root/compile/telnetd.patch
Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|Index: libexec/telnetd/ext.h
|===================================================================
|RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/libexec/telnetd/ext.h,v
|retrieving revision 1.8
|retrieving revision 1.10
|diff -u -r1.8 -r1.10
|--- libexec/telnetd/ext.h      2000/11/19 10:01:27     1.8
|+++ libexec/telnetd/ext.h      2001/07/23 22:00:51     1.10
--------------------------
File to patch:


What file do I tell it to patch?  The instructions sent with the security
advisory just say

# cd /usr/src/
# patch -p < /path/to/patch
# cd /usr/src/libexec/telnetd
# make depend && make all install

The 2nd step there gives me the 'File to patch' prompt above.  Could
someone please tell me how to proceed?

Thanks,
