Reading SCO tapes on Linux
This is the problem & a solution from the time I had to read some old SCO tapes on a Linux 2.4 system. I also ran into the same problem with tapes created on a 2.2 kernel linux. This might be useful for someone someday.
Self defense for SCO users If you are running a SCO system, it's time to get very serious about protecting yourself. This article assumes that you either cannot switch to another platform or that switching is too difficult (see "Time to Dump SCO?").
Getting near to the end? Well, the SCO lawsuit is getting closer to the end. According to the Groklaw article in the link, the judge threw out most of their claims. Too bad he didn't throw them all out, but.. Anyway, it's getting even less likely that SCO is going to do well here. For those who are still running SCO systems, time could be running out: the company may not be there when you need them to be. So what now?
