Hi Paul,

Thanks for getting Firebird working on HPUX systems, I'm running a
C3000 with 11i (11.11).

I downloaded your CS v1.5.0.4290.0 binary kit, unziped/untared it,
became super-user and ran the ./install.sh script.

Seem to start ok: adds user/group firebird & adds to /etc/inetd.conf,
can't chmod README file, then it asks for the new SYSDBA password and
then it hangs.

Here is a listing of what is happening, note that the uninstall does
not remove the lib links, therefore they already exist from the last
install attempt:
$ su
Password:
# ./install.sh
