Software for HP-UX 10.20
I recently snagged a HP 9000/712-80 that I've gotten up and running with HP-UX 10.20 on a scsi2sd. Next step is to install NextSTEP. But for now, I would really like to find something, anything really, to do with HP-UX.
However, I'm having a great deal of trouble finding any sort of software. I've downloaded a few software CDs from archive.org, but they require codewords I don't have.
Can anyone suggest (or provide) a source for something like web browsers, compilers, demos, anything really.
Also, for what it's worth, I also now have dd images of the default 10.20 install, so if anyone wants one let me know. If you have a scsi2sd it should enable getting a similar 9000/712 up and running with a simple dd command to the SD card.

Larbob apparently has developed a GCC version for HP-UX 10
I'm afraid my knowledge here isn't much but that's freaking annoying regarding codewords.

You need version 11 for that packaging to work

RE: Software for HP-UX 10.20
If you look around, there are versions of the applications CDs available that don't required codewords. You probably also need the patch sets like 700QPK1020_10.20_700 and XSW700HW1020_10.20_700. HP-UX 10.20 isn't all that bad. Most annoying is that 10.20 doesn't have POSIX threats. If you have something more spicy than a 712 (128MB RAM won't get you all that far), you can get gcc-4.something to work. Not sure if you really want a web browser, but period correct would be Netscape 4.
