Although the kernel is a BSD derivative, HP-UX is fully compatible with the System V Release 3 base system, and passes the corresponding SVVS conformance test suite completely. HP-UX also provides most of the popular BSD functionality, including job control, high-resolution timers, Berkeley/ARPA networking, and sockets, and it therefore has TCP/IP with a BSD socket interface. In the U.S., you can call 800-752-0900 for more information about HP-UX. Or, if you wish, you can post more questions here. Dave Decot Hewlett-Packard Standard disclaimer -- personal opinions only.
