I downloaded "bffcreate" from one of the freeware AIX sites. It worked
great.

Hi Jenifer
You can create your own packages
Actually I'm creating packages for our system for a long time.
There is procedure and tools described in redbook "Managing AIX farms"
creating basic bff is quite easy and straightforward
adding scripts can be a little tricky and neeed good defensive scripting...
For rpm there is book "Maximum RPM" you can download it from redhat docs
If you have any question please just ask!
Hope this helps
