7.40 Problem with ntalkd and it's handling on /etc/utmp.
The current version of ntalkd (talkd is probably the same here),
and it's handling of /etc/utmp is broken since it doesn't check
the ut_type field. This causes it to send messages to logged out
tty's rather than to those who are logged in on. The patch is easy
luckily and also applies to most other unix's except really BSD4.2
ones and SunOS4.
The patch is availalable on ftp.amtp.cam.ac.uk:/pub/HP/ntalk.tgz.
