Subject:   ibcs2 not working with SCO binary

Greetings,

I have been trying to get IBCS2 running on 2.2.7 FreeBSD and have been
having problems with a SCO program called filePro.  I turned ibcs2 on
in the /etc/rc.conf and compiled the following into the kernel.
		options         SYSVSHM
		options         SYSVSEM
		options         SYSVMSG
		options         "SHMMAXPGS=4096"


I also setup the following

# ls -al /compat/ibcs2/dev

total 2
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel       512 Feb  1 09:04 .
drwxrwxrwx  5 root  wheel       512 Feb  1 09:00 ..
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel         9 Feb  1 09:03 XOR -> /dev/null
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel         9 Feb  1 09:04 nfsd -> /dev/null
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel         0 Feb  1 09:01 null
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel         9 Feb  1 09:03 socksys -> /dev/null
crw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   41,   1 Feb  1 09:04 spx


The shlib directory was pulled from a SCO rel 5 system and put into
/compat/ibcs2/shlib directory.

# ls -al /compat/ibcs2/shlib

total 325
drwxrwxrwx  2 root  wheel     512 Feb  1 08:21 .
drwxrwxrwx  5 root  wheel     512 Feb  1 09:00 ..
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   67751 May 13  1997 libc_s
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   35367 Dec  3  1997 libnsl_s
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   29201 Dec  3  1997 libsc_s
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  186265 May 13  1997 protlib_s


The application is giving me an error saying there are too many users
in the application for the license.  I wrote the developers of the 
application and they had requested I send the following files:
	/usr/include/sys/ipc.h
	/usr/include/sys/shm.h
	/usr/include/sys/sem.h

The developers of filePro wrote back they believe there is problem with 
the shared memory calls.  FilePro does work on Linux running ibcs but
does not appear to work on FreeBSD.  Only two modules of filePro does not
work on FreeBSD.  Both modules enforce their user license limits and 
report there are too many users using the system at once for that license. 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Mark Comins
