using lsof instead of fuser and building the binary

[Richard Woolley]

Hi,

I was told that the command "lsof" is better than fuser. however I went to download it and it mentions that I must use the correct version which seemed like HP-UX 11 32bit.
I have HP-UX 11 64bit (mainly) heres what it said:

" Note that the binary releases of lsof on this archive will ONLY run on OS release they were compiled on and will run on 32-bit HP-UX only. If you have any other release of HP-UX, you must build lsof yourself from the source code. "

so I downloaded the source code, what would be my procedure to successfully install it?

Hi Mark,

is there a file called "configure"? If so, run it (./configure), followed by make. If there is only a file called "Makefile", or "makefile", just run make. If you do not have an ANSI C compiler, and "make" does not compile properly, you have to install gcc (or buy HP's ANSI C compiler) first.

HTH, cu l8r, Edgar.

I d/loaded and installed binutils, which was a prerequisite for gcc. and downloaded gcc. reading about how to install it, it said run ./configure then make. the configure seemed to finish, however the make output (and it was going on forever) stopped saying that it had run out of memory ?
this machine has 1152Mb of memory???
whats going on?
