What I actually said was *compiled* since 1997ish and even mentioned to Eitan that openserver 3.2v= 4 was about the last set of sco binaries we could run. We don't run openserver 5, nor the unixware binaries. It would probably be best described as "Legacy SCO binaries" and leave it= at that. BTW; I was wrong about the dates.. it was the 1995 release that was the c= ut off, not 1997/1999. "Openserver 5" (released in 1995) switched to an elf= executable format and a dynamic syscall numbering system. --=20 Peter Wemm - peter@wemm.org; peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com; KI6F= JV --OCfqfwfiCHfX2usRldUn1Fd5gcx0WThJR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlJSTM0ACgkQFRKuUnJ3cX9KrQCfVx0wzQLPzyrVTS02DUOJS0Hg /E4AnjwOvh32fn+IlS+letMKJo8pNTg0 =Xcgn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --OCfqfwfiCHfX2usRldUn1Fd5gcx0WThJR--
