I'm running > 4.0. What kind of SCO binaries? If they're 3.2v4.2 (i.e. IBCS2 coff), support is very good. Just edit /etc/rc.conf and add an ibcs2_enable="YES" line. Add any libraries or support binaries into /compat/ibcs2/* . If you're talking OSR5 (i.e. svr4 elf), support is not good at all.. The current svr4 code was written with Solaris x86 in mind, and a lot of syscalls have to be rewritten to make SCO bins work right. I'm about 50% done (working in my free time), and have changed lseek(), xenix(), getgroups(), sysarch(), and the *stat() syscalls so far. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
