how to unzip a zipped PC file on HPUX?

[Hanry Zhou]

I know that there is hpux version of unzip package, but without using this package, is there any existing tools on HPUX that I can use to unzip the file. This file zipped on PC, and ftped to the hp box.

Thanks,

If you want to extract files from zip-archive You have to install unzip utility from http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/UnZip.html

NB: gunzip != unzip...

If the file was zipped on a PC, you want unzip.

Here's a way to get the stuff into the box:

Don't unzip it on the hp. Unzip on the pc. Then use software (ftp, scp, samba?) to move the file(s) from the PC to the server.
