Is there a single utility that will read both? Is there a single *FREE* utility that will read both?
I've already tried searching the forums on this, and found a thread referencing bzip2, which would appear to handle at least the RAR stuff
http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1164605
which pointed to the Utah repository
http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Misc/bzip2-1.0.4/
Unfortunately, that last link doesn't exist. A search at Utah showed that the current version of bzip2 is 1.0.5, but its page is missing, too.
Is bzip2 the way I should go? If so, where else other than Utah can I find it?
Thanks!

Solutionit will handle zip, bz2 and so on. see:
http://www.manpagez.com/man/1/bzip2/
gzip is also available, but it doesn't handle rar files either.
there is a program "unrar" that should handle the winrar stuff, but might not handle the regular zip files (I've not looked).
also see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unrar
there are free and commercial versions available for that one

Re: HPUX utility to read Windows-produced RAR and WinZIP files?
Well, poo. Since I'm being forced to deal with both formats, I was hoping to find a single utility that would Play Nicely with RARs *and* Windows-generated ZIPs.
If you think it will let me see the contents of at least a WinZIP .zip file, I will ask our admins to grab and install bzip2 ASAP. Thank you!!!~

Re: HPUX utility to read Windows-produced RAR and WinZIP files?
I was testing bzip2, unzip and winrar for unix.
Is there a single utility that will read both?
No, I could only use winrar for windows rar files and unzip for windows zip files.

Re: HPUX utility to read Windows-produced RAR and WinZIP files?
Seems like you need a single utility for each format.
You could write shell script wrapper to call these utilities. Then your wrapper script would be the single utility.

SEP - Yep, that's my plan. But I couldn't start scripting my way out of this hole I'm in, until I knew what tools I could use. :-)

It wouldn't hurt (much) to have all these
tools (or at least bzip2 and Info-ZIP UnZip)
lying around, so that you could see pretty
easily which ones actually _do_ work.
(Reality tends to be more reliable than
advice, too.)
