Don't know why you need this.
It is here:

http://hpux.asknet.de/hppd/hpux/Shells/bash-3.2/

Never change the root default shell away from /sbin/sh !!!

Hope this helps!

Re: HP Unix 11i v2

Shalom,

HP does not provide the bash shell on its install media.

The bash shell should be used on a limited basis and there may be variances between how it performs on hpux versus linux.

If you change the root default shell, your system may become unbootable and malfunction badly.

Scripts designed and written for posix or the korn shell should not be run under the bash shell.
