DST changes on HP-UX.B.10.20

[Betty Fessler]

My company has some old HP's still running B.10.20 which they won't let us upgrade. I've already copied and updated tztab from an 11i system to the /usr/lib/tztab on the 10.20's at HP's suggestion, but the tzupdater for java only works on java 1.4.0 and up. The 10.20's are running really really old java's. Also I've been told that DCE and C libraries might need updating. Is that true on the 10.20's and how can that be manually done. If we don't have C and C++ loaded will the library still need updating?

The TZudater should have a release (soon) that will work on java1.3 and above. If you have lower than 1.3 you will need to upgrade or acknowledge the time differences for the 4 weeks.

The DCE and C libraries have, or will have, patches available for 11.00 and above.

There is no mention of 10.20 fixes being available.

I've manually updated the /usr/lib/tztab on the 10.20 machine by doing cp of an updated version from an 11i box. Thankx for the info on the java.1.3 updater.
