HP does indeed have ftp and various other network services available under
HPUX.  It is a separate product set, so unless you ordered it or the boxes
come with the ARPA/NS software stuff, it won't be in the standard manuals.

It inlcudes things like ftp, rlogin, telnet, but I am not sure if NFS is
part of that or a separate entity of its own.  We run bsd on our HP machines,
so I am not that familiar with HPUX software options.
