cpio: incompatibility between HP-UX 10.20 & UW7.0.1

Hi all,

I'm unable to read the cpio file created from Unixware 7.0.1 with the minimum
patches applied.

Here is the command that I ran:

-On UW7.0.1 with minimum patches applied:

find . -print|cpio -ov > /exports/uw7tbin.cpi

(I tried also : find . -print| cpio -ocv > /exports/uw7tbin.cpi but still the
same error in reading from HP-UX)

Tried to read 'uw7tbin.cpi' from NFS mount shared directory on HP-UX system or
transfer it with FTP:

HP-UX 10.20:

$ cpio -itv < uw7tbin.cpi
Out of phase--get help
Perhaps the "-c" option should be used
[duyv@Service:/mnt]
$ cpio -itcv < uw7tbin.cpi
Out of phase--get help
Perhaps the "-c" option shouldn't be used

Do I need some patches to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance for any advise.

H.V

Have you tried the -B option on the HP-UX machine. This assumes a block size
of 512 bytes (5120 bytes per i/o record.)
