Operating Systems HP-UX Dev/urandom and dev/random missing in HP-UX Post 303019793 by MadeInGermany on Friday 6th of July 2018 02:31:45 PM

Maybe it was available as a patch/package.
But lately I do not have access to HP-UX systems, discontinued my HPE account, and have forgotten many things...
You might want to have a look in the HP-UX forum, e.g. the HP-UX links at the top.
There are some links to HPE support.

IO::All::HTTPS(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       IO::All::HTTPS(3pm)

NAME
IO::All::HTTPS - Extends IO::All for HTTPS URLs SYNOPSIS
use IO::All; $content < io('https://example.org'); # GET webpage # two ways of getting a page with a password: $content < io('https://me:secret@example.org'); $content < io('https://example.org')->user('me')->password('secret'); DESCRIPTION
This module extends IO::All for dealing with HTTPS URLs. Note that you don't need to use it explicitly, as it is autoloaded by IO::All whenever it sees something that looks like an HTTPS URL. The SYNOPSIS shows some simple typical examples, but there are many other interesting combinations with other IO::All features! For example, you can get an HTTPS URL and write the content to a socket, or to an FTP URL, of to a DBM file. METHODS
This is a subclass of IO::All::LWP. The only new method is "https", which can be used to create a blank IO::All::HTTPS object; or it can also take an HTTPS URL as a parameter. Note that in most cases it is simpler just to call io('https://example.com'), which calls the "https" method automatically. OPERATOR OVERLOADING
The same operators from IO::All may be used. < GETs an HTTPS URL; > PUTs to an HTTPS URL. SEE ALSO
IO::All, IO::All::LWP, LWP. AUTHORS
