The SuSe9.1 version that is loaded on my HP nx5000 laptop does not contain support for uuencode/uudecode. Packaged applications that I am trying to run are looking for this functionality. Where can I get this uuencode/uudecode functionality from and is it easily introduced into my system? thanks, shankar

Install the package sharutils from the distribution media. That will give you /usr/bin/uuencode and /usr/bin/uudecode

Thanks. Appreciate the help. I don't see sharutils on my SuSE HP OEM linux 9.1 distribution CD (under /suse/i586 or other places). What are my alternatives? Am I safe in going to the gnu site and picking this up? thanks, shankar

Not sure what that HP cd is, but if it's really 9.1 professional, you can get sharutils here ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.1/suse/i586

I don't know what that OEM distro is, but notice that SuSE 9.1 fills a DVD completely, so your CD is certainly too small to contain all of it. You can go to any suse mirror to get what you need, I suppose. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
