Netscape

[Jeffrey F. Goldsmith]

I have installed ArcIMS onto my D380 server which has HP-UX 11.i as an OS. Right now I am at a point where I need to start Netscape to test the installation.
How do I start Netscape?
How do I know if Netscape is installed on my server?
If Netscape isnt on my server where can I get a copy of it so I can install it on my server?

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Try,

# /opt/netscape/netscape

The versions of Netscape which are available for HP-UX are quite old (4.7?) but can be downloaded from www.netscape.com (under archived browsers). You will be better served to install mozilla from any of the recent Applications CD Sets. Once, /opt/mozilla/bin is in your PATH, simply execute mozilla after setting DISPLAY to point to an appropriate X server. Starting netscape is essentially the same.

I think you will find mozilla a clean browser to work with. Has a familiar look and feel but minus all the bells and whistles that are in netscape.

Thanks for the information.

I found the CD (#4) that has Mozilla on it which is version 1.4. How do I go about installing it onto my UNIX server?

There are no codewords so all you need to do is mount the cd and swinstall:

e.g.:

mkdir /cdrom #(if you don't already have a mountpoint)
Insert the CD
mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom # using your cd device as determined by an ioscan -C disk -fn

swinstall -s /cdrom

You then select the Mozilla packages, Actions -> Mark for Install, Actions-> Install

Found Mozilla and got it installed.
Thanks for the help.
