I need to install, upgrade, or uninstall VShell^® for UNIX on my HP-UX system.

The following libraries must reside on your system for the VShell for UNIX installer to complete successfully (these libraries are for HP-UX version 11):

• libpthread.1
• libpam.1
• libstdc++.sl.5
• libm.2
• libgcc_s.sl
• libc.2

The following library is required if using PAM:

• libpam_unix.1

Install

To install VShell for UNIX, follow these steps:

Note: You must have root permissions to install VShell.

1. Download VShell from the VanDyke Software web site. Make a note of the MD5 checksum listed below the download link that you use. You can ensure that the downloaded file has not been corrupted by comparing that number to the number generated by running the following command on the downloaded file:
   

    md5 <vshell filename>

2. Clear port 22. By default, VShell uses port 22. Before installing VShell, stop all other services that run on port 22.
3. Go to the directory where you downloaded the VShell installer depot.
4. Enter the following command:
   

    gunzip vshell-<version number>-<build number>.hpux11.depot.gz

5. Install the depot using the full path to the depot:

   swinstall -s <full path>/vshell-<version number>-<build  number>.hpux11.depot vshell

   The installer will create the following files and install them to the indicated pathnames:
   
   /usr/local/sbin/vshelld
   /etc/init.d/vshelld
   /usr/local/bin/vsh
   /usr/local/bin/vcp
   /usr/local/bin/vsftp
   /usr/local/bin/vpka
   /usr/local/bin/vkeygen
   * /usr/local/etc/vshelld_config
   * /usr/local/etc/vshelld_primes.txt
   * /etc/pam.d/vshelld (modified)
   /usr/share/doc/vshell-<version>/history.txt
   /usr/share/doc/vshell-<version>/readme.txt
   /usr/share/doc/vshell-<version>/VShell_EULA.pdf
   /usr/local/order.txt
   /usr/local/man/man1/vcp.1
   /usr/local/man/man1/vsh.1
   /usr/local/man/man1/vsftp.1
   /usr/local/man/man1/vpka.1
   /usr/local/man/man1/vkeygen.1
   /usr/local/man/man5/vshelld_config.5
   /usr/local/man/man8/vshelld.8
   /usr/local/etc/vshelld_config.default
   
   
   * These files will not be replaced if they already exist.
6. Once the depot has been installed successfully, you can quit the installer.

Upgrade

To upgrade VShell for UNIX, rerun swinstall using the full path to the depot:

 swinstall -s <full path>/vshell-<version number>-<build number>.hpux11.depot vshell

Note: You must have root permissions to upgrade VShell.

You should not remove the host keys when doing an upgrade unless you want them to be regenerated. If you do choose to regenerate the host keys, all users using the service must re-load the host key for the system.

Uninstall

To uninstall VShell for UNIX, enter the following command:

 Swremove vshell

Note: You must have root permissions to uninstall VShell.

The uninstall program will not delete the following files:

/usr/local/etc/vshelld_config
/usr/local/etc/vshelld_eval.lic
/usr/local/etc/vshelld_hostkey
/usr/local/etc/vshelld_hostkey.pub
/usr/share/doc/vshell<version>
