Whatever you do, do not make it root's shell. Root must have a statically linked shell so that it can function before the shared libraries in /use are mounted.

[Steven E. Protter]

Unless there is a really good reason, I recommend not running the bash shell on HP-UX.

I've ported a lot of scripts back and forth from HP-UX to Linux and back and found no problems getting those scripts to work was a simple matter of changing the shell line at the top.

I know from many posts that if you change the root shell, you will break you sysetm. Badly. Listen to A. Clay on that one.

I am seeking bash depot for HP-UX 11.11, not for HP-UX 11.00

[Pete Randall]

Victor,

The depot I pointed you to should work fine on 11i, even though it says it's for 11.0. You will probably have to change the swinstall flags to allow incompatible software to be installed, but it should work fine.

Or you can compile the source code provided in the link that Pete has posted.

Hope this helps.

I have found that many patches are both compatible with 11.0 and 11.i.

Many of the patches our company uses on primarily 11.0 boxes are the same patches I load on my 11.i boxes for company compliance.

Of course OS specific patches would be the exception.

Also, as stated before, it can not be overstated. Don't change root's shell or you will regret it...

Did you try hp's LINUX porting kit. It has bash for 11i. It's free.

Victor...

Here is a link to Bash install for HPUX that runs on 11.11. From the HPUX Porting and Archive Centre

sorry bad link...

no points here.


I saw that you gave zero points to someone whogave you the link..

11.0 version will run on 11i in fact it is the same version. No difference.
