has not been changed by HP.

• "HP-UX DCE" - This header means that the manpage either originates from HP or is an OSF manpage

that HP has changed.

HP-UX DCE manpages are in the following directories:

• /opt/dce/share/man

• /opt/dce/usr/man

• /usr/share/man

To read DCE manpages by using the man command, include the path names listed above in your MANPATH
