Okay, first of all, You need a full copy of installed Oracle (from Your SCO). Then create equvalent environment for oracle7 user... Don't forgot to link /dev/socksys to /dev/null... And You should recompile your kernel to support SHM* features (in fact, not only to support, but to increase all constants from LINT), and apply a patch to kernel. Here it is: (It's not mine. It's from Remy NONNENMACHER ) ---8<--- Ah, if you want to run that shit called SQL-Net, you will need to change the following in the FreeBSD ibcs2 (SCO and co) emulation : sys/i386/ibcs2/ibcs2_ioctl.c : around line 654 : case IBCS2_FIONREAD: /* STREAMS */ case IBCS2_I_NREAD: /* STREAMS */ SCARG(uap, cmd) = FIONREAD; return ioctl(p, (struct ioctl_args *)uap, retval); (Yes, Oracle netsucks, sometime, DO polling !!!). ---8<--- If You want more information - write me, or andy@atom.ru, or severov@atom.ru Good luck! -- Solik.
