Jetze,
I believe that the gzip make file should have been included with the
source code. Gzip is a C program that must be compiled on your system.
To do this you need the source code and a licensed C compiler. The
make file contains the actual C command that links in all the
libraries that the program needs to run.
However, if you just installed AIX 4.3.3, you may not have the
licensed C compiler installed, so my suggestion would be to download
the AIX executable listed on the gzip website as "RS6000 AIX 4.3.1"
which should work on your AIX 4.3.3 system.
