I cannot apply patch-21 and patch-26
Below is the error for patch-21 for ckermit.
Hmm... Looks like a new-style context diff to me...

Looks like a problem with patch to me. However, would like to check to

Okay both patches were applied to clean cku192.tar.gz distributions
with no other patches. I attempted with other patches and got the
exact same errors.
The systems tried on are redhat 4.2 and redhat 5.0, and I got the
exact same errors. I guess the question is will these two patches work
with Linux? patch-21 and patch-26 are not that critical for what I do
but I was wondering if it is possible to apply these patches to a
linux system.
I did look in my ckermit book version 6, and no help there on this
matter.
Thanks for any help,
Alan
