Re: how to install *.pkg software on hp-ux 11.0

If you talking about standard "depot" software, meaning distribution software in SD format, the you use 'swinstall' to install it.
You can use the command line to install the software or you can use the interactive menu based part of 'swinstall'.

Menu based.

# swinstall

command line example
# swinstall -s /tmp/mysoftware \*
Anyone for a Mutiny ?

Hi,

.pkg software are packages for sun/solaris, i think it is not possible to install these packages direct on a hp/ux server. Coult not find any solutions on the sunsolve page.
