Linux is sticky since the file operation syscalls use a 'virtual root' under /compat/linux. If the backup works, you'll end up backing up /compat/linux and not / as you might expect. I hacked the linux kernel module to not apply this path change. It works fine otherwise. Unfortunately this is a pain, esp. on 3.X since I can't register a sysctl to tweak it (I can on 4.X), so anytime I want to use a real Linux app (like acroread) I have to swap modules. Note that binaries run without the pathmunging must be statically linked since they'll never find their libraries. The SCO emulation doesn't path munge. I must have tried the wrong client because I did try the SCO v3 client without success. I'll try the v2 client and see if that works. > I have some notes on getting the SCO client to work, > if you're interested -- works like a charm (the command > line / batch mode). > > > > What FreeBSD is this?
