Why not try it and tell us? If you have a recent 5.6.x version of PERL
and the ability to do cgi scripts on your HP/UX 10.20 web server, then
CVSWeb should work for you.

fwiw: The legacy CVSWeb was not as good as ViewCVS. However, FreeBSD
CVSWeb has a release as of 2004-05-08 (version 3.0.1) which I have not
yet tried.

ViewCVS is written in Python (see http://viewcvs.sourceforge.net/) and
is an alternative that will probably also work on HP/UX 10.20. The 0.9.2
version is a bit long in the tooth, but is stable on a lot of platforms.
The development version is also available from their site.

        Enjoy!
