1. HP-UX *does* come with gzip (look in /usr/contrib/bin
2. ... but it is rather old
3. Find more recent versions on my site: http://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/ , http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/ , or http://www.hpux.ws/merijn/
4. or on any of the worldwide download centers (e.g. http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gzip-1.3.5/)


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Vered,
HPUX has the gzip installed in /usr/contrib/bin/gzip.

You can also get it in http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gzip-1.3.5/

HTH,

Hi Vered,

HP does indeed ship gzip with the OS. But it's delivered in the SW-DIST fileset & is installed into /usr/contrib/bin. The version shipped is gzip 1.2.4 which does not handle >2GB files successfully.
To see if you have it run:
swlist -l fileset | grep -i gzip

Rgds,
Jeff
