Hi,

Actually you can ! The HPUX operating system allows either 14 chararcters
for filename (SYSV) or variable length filenames (upto 256 bytes). To do that
use SAM (system admin Manager), go to File System section and select
"Convert File System to Long File Names ...". This would change the default
14 char filename to allow for longer filenames.
