Hi,

The Internet is large, and it contains many
things.

You downloaded _what_, exactly, from _where_,
exactly, and did _what_, exactly, with it?

Personally, I'd just fetch a source kit, and
build it myself.

Doesn't HP-UX B.11.11 include gzip?

[Patrick Wallek]

I would get gzip from:

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gzip-1.3.12/

If you download the 11.11 "compressed binary depot" (which is the 2nd link from the bottom) then you can use "uncompress" to uncompress what you download and then use swinstall to install.

>>Doesn't HP-UX B.11.11 include gzip?

HP-UX has come with a version of gzip since at least version 10.20. However, if I recall correctly it was relatively old (Version 1.2.4 I think) and did not support creating files larger than 2GB.

Yes: /usr/contrib/bin/gunzip /usr/contrib/bin/gzip
gzip 1.3.5 (2002-09-30)

Hi,

Om just give the command "whereis gunzip" if gunzip is there in your system you will show the path like :

#whereis gunzip
/usr/contrib/bin/gunzip
