Introduction
Release 4.0 of HIDS is available from the following sources:
• As a depot directory on an Application Release CD for 11i and on
OEUR for HP-UX 11i v2, beginning from March 2006.
• As a depot file you download from the HP Software Depot Website for
HP-UX 11i, beginning from January 2006.
The HIDS software product bundle, HPUX-HIDS, contains the IDS and
IDS-KRN products. The IDS-KRN product is used to reduce the likelihood
of a system reboot for future HIDS software updates. The IDS product
comprises four subproducts listed in Table 2-1.
Table 2-2 describes which software is required on the administration and
agent systems and on a dual or evaluation system running
administration and agent software together. The “Installation Summary”
on page 26 describes how to package the software into software depots
and install it on your administration and agent systems.
