Hi You can download an already compiled version of 'lsof' from the porting centre.

Here is the link

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/lsof-4.61/

One other product you may like to have a look at and that is 'nmap', have a look here:

Hi,

you can get lsof from the Software Porting Center. The german mirror is at http://hpux.asknet.de.

Also you could use a portscanner like nmap to check for open ports. nmap is also available at the porting center in precompiled binaries for HP-UX 10.20 and 11.

Hope this helps

Regards Stefan

Hi,

you may find the hp-ux porting center also at
http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/
But afaik the lsof version you can download at the porting center is only for 32 bit systems. So you may have to download the sourcecode an recompile it on your machine.
You also may use "nmap" to scan for accessible network ports.
