A few weeks ago I read an article about a way to fix the kernel code under
sunOS 4.0.x so that a different hostid is returned by this system call.
Can someone please send me the details on how that is done.  I was able to
pull in vmunix under adb and look at the function, but then I do not know
what to do next .... :-) .

Thanks in advance.
