Step 1: Checking HP CIFS Client Installation
Prerequisites
Prior to loading the HP CIFS Client software onto your system, check
that you have met the following hardware and software prerequisites:
1. The HP CIFS client runs on all HP workstations and Servers that
are capable of running HP-UX version 11.11 or later, in either 32-bit
or 64-bit mode. No specific system patches are required for the HP
CIFS Client. See item 3 below.
2. The Kerberos libraries, libkrb5.sl and libcom_err.lib, must be present
on your system. For HP-UX version 11i (B.11.11) and future releases,
these libraries should be on your system by default as part of your
base HP-UX operating system installation. However, on HP-UX
version 11.0 (B.11.00), these libraries may not be present (check in
/usr/lib). To acquire these libraries, install the product PAM
Kerberos, available at http://software.hp.com
3. Check that you have the latest PAM library patch. Patches are
available at HP’s online patch catalogue, search for “libpam”. You
can use the swlist command to list software installed on your
system. If a General Release patch is listed, you can check its
contents for PAM patches with the following command:
swlist -l fileset _patch-name_ | grep -i pam
Refer to the HP CIFS Client release notes for information about
patch dependencies.
4. You must log in as a user with root privileges o perform the
installation.
NOTE If you are currently using an A.01.* version of the HP CIFS Client, read
the “Migrating from version A.01.* to A.02.* of HP CIFS Client” on
page 57 before installing any A.02.* version.
