Thanks Dan,
I'm put this out here again to see if anyone else has any info regarding SCO 5.0
or higher apps on
FreeBSD. Turns out the app I want to try requires 5.0 or higher. :-(

All you should really need to do is set ibcs2_enable="yes" in
/etc/rc.conf and reboot. Note that this is SCO 3.2v4.2 emulation, not
OSR 5. You will probably need to populate /compat/ibcs2 with some SCO
bits; I had to copy /etc/default/, /usr/lib/lang/ and
/usr/lib/terminfo/ .
