- Perl is available from all fine archives, including ftp.uu.net
-
- It works very nicely under HP/UX (though Randel advises me that his
- expect library may not work properly).
-
- Cops was also no trouble to get working under HP/UX, but of course I
- already had perl installed since it is such a useful tool on it's own.
-
- If you are interested in Cops, you may want to also add Crack (which
- works with very minor tweaking) and possibly Tripwire (which I haven't
- quite got working.)
