sudo installation

[fabler]

Hello everyone!

sorry for my stupid question!

I can't install sudo from here: http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Sysadmin/sudo-1.6.9p17/sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot.gz

installation guide says:
[Edit the HP-UX override section of configure for your site,
particularly the prefix setting]
./configure
gmake install

but there isn't script named "configure" in folders after unzipping sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot.gz.

Could somebody tell me, how should I install sudo?

Thanks!

Hi,

I think you didn't unzip the depot
Frist unzip the depot then try

Another option is to use ixSudo from InternetExpress package - http://h20338.www2.hp.com/hpux11i/cache/324414-0-0-0-121.html

regards,

Shalom,

move the depot to /tmp (example choose your spot)
gunzip sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot.gz

swinstall -s /tmp/sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot \*

There will be an error and then it will work.

You have downloaded a SD-UX software depot and must use swinstall to install it on an HP-UX server.

You can also get what I feel is a better depot install by downloading sudo from http://software.hp.com
Search for Internet Express, choose your OS and then pick the component you would like.

of course i did it...
there are two root folders and so on after unzipping (as written in Contents). Whole directories tree is the same View Contents.

Go back and reread SEP's reply.

The installation instructions you see are reading are for compiling the source code. You are not doing that.

You have downloaded a gzip'ed DEPOT file. You should be able to install this directly via swinstall.

Assuming the file is in /tmp:

# cd /tmp
# gunzip sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot.gz
# swinstall -s /tmp/sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot \*

Now sudo should be installed.

i have some progress!

swinstall -s /.../sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot runs SD install, but there is one error:
cannot establish a lock on the target because of an external error (for example, the lock file could not be created).

which resourse cannot be locked?

My OS is 11.11 and i couldn't get nessesary version of package from software.hp.com

gunzip sudo-1.6...depot.gz says:
gunzip: sudo......depot.gz: not in gzip format.

i unzipped by winrar on my work machine and then copied by ftp to server (in avtomatic mode).

[Patrick Wallek]

You would probably be better off copying the depot.gz file to your HP-UX server, making sure to use BINARY FTP.

Once on your server, gunzip the file there and then try swinstall.

i used bin mode when i copied gz archive ...

[Suraj K Sankari]

hi,
for unzip do like this way
gunzip -d sudo-1.6...depot.gz

suraj

[fabler]

gunzip -d sudo-1.6...depot.gz

gunzip: sudo... not in gzip format

[fabler]

probably the reason is copying between vista and xp computers...

[Duncan Edmonstone]

I suggest you download the depot again... I often find problems with downloads from the HP-UX porting and archive centre if I use http download rather than the ftp download.

Use this link to download and see how you get on:

ftp://hpux.connect.org.uk/hpux/Sysadmin/sudo-1.6.9p17/sudo-1.6.9p17-hppa-11.11.depot.gz

hi fabler,
Better download the new one ftp into hpbox with binary mode then start installation as per the readme file.

[fabler]

files have different sizes (http and ftp).
gunzip worked without errors, but
swinstall -s /tmp/sudo....depot says:
There is currently no depot software on host at location........

[Suraj K Sankari]

Hi,

register your deport with this

swreg -l depot hostname:/var/opt/mx/depot11
swreg -l depot /var/opt/mx/depot11

or

try with sam for installation

Now I'm struggling to see what your problem is - here's a complete log of my install of sudo on a 11.11 system (your server is running HP-UX11.11 isn't it?)

So it installs fine for me...

[fabler]

it's ok!
i installed sudo too.
Thanks everyone!

[Raymond E. Lilly]

I need to run sudo and plan to follow the detailed swinstall steps posted by Duncan. My system has little space available. Can anyone tell me where the files are installed and how much space it consumes? Thanks, Ray
