Hi All,
Please help me. I need information how to use install and use gzip for aix 4.3.

TIA
Gofur
 
Go to :


This is the URL for the AIX linux toolkit. You will need to download rpm.rte, install it using "installp -acd rpm.rte all"

After rpm.rte is installed you will need to download the gzip for 433 rpm image from above URL and install using "rpm -iv filename.rpm"
 
Easier:

Try the freeware page at bull ( and you can download the smit installable package for GZip (and many more things)

Suppose you downloaded it in your [tt]/tmp[/tt] filesystem, then
[tt]
# chmod u+rx *.exe
# ./*.exe
... it says something about UnZipFx ...
# installp -acXd gzip*bff all
... it will install /usr/local/bin/gzip ...
# export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
... now you can use gzip ;)
[/tt]
Easy!
I hope it works...
