My question are: - Is FreeBSD 5.3 well tested in order to emulate SCO UNIX? - This system uses a database from Progress Software Corp. v. 8.3, has anyone used/ported it under FreeBSD ? it is safe? - If I port to FreeBSD, the tree structure is the same than SCO? may I have problems or can I solve them? I have no problems (I think) with the users, because they use a W2K application to access the database in the server. My question basically are for the server. If anyone has anything more that can help to me, please... ;-) Thanks in advance Juan Coruņa Desarrollo de Software Atlantico
