The null field is the "" (nothing) between the '=' and the first ':'.
The '~' stands for your HOME directory and I think the 'owner' of this
CDPATH quickly wanted to have access to some of his directories
located under his HOME directory.

The default for CDPATH if not defined is NULL which is your current
directory (as specified in the man pages).

The "B6" refers to the revision level of the processor.

Prior the the "B6" stepping the 486 had a number of errata which
caused problems when running a 32 bit virtual memory operating system
such as SCO Open Desktop. All of the problems for which there was
no practical software workround were fixed in the B6 step.

By now this is all pretty much ancient history - it affected some
very early 25 MHz 486 machines that came from OEMs who were among
the very first to ship the 486. My recollection is that by the
time clock speeds faster than 25 MHz were released (ie 33 MHz) the
processor was already at step C0 and above.

So, unless you have a 25 MHz 486 which is over 2 years old you have
nothing to worry about - even then the chance that you have less than
a B6 processor is very remote.

Bill:  The basic filepro varialble scheme is a 2 character 
variable name such as AA AB AC AD and so forth.  The field names 
in the file definitions as simple numeric numbers.  Thus the 
account code field in a file is actually field "1" in my file.

Yes, you can alias then REAL field names to aliases and get real 
variable names, but this requires some coding which defeats the 
convenience of the package for short applications.

A further limit is the mapping of dimensional structions, such as 
the construct  sales(i) where i=1,n.

In filepro, you have to map the array, or matrix to a starting 
dummy variable such as  DA and then then mapping actually ties up 
other dummy variable names DB, DC, DD, ... DZ, EA, EB, ... etc.

In a complex application, this can leave you wish a nasty bug 
which can be really hard to find.  I've enlarged an array before 
and found that I had overwritten a dummy variable that I was 
using elsewhere.

Unless, filepro has really changed and they no longer do things 
this way, it limits the use of the product for complicated 
applications.

I thought you used filepro a bunch in fact.

Very important note:  For quick and dirty apps, filepro is 
probably the easiest to use database manager available.  It has 
its proper place however.  I would never use it to write a 
complicated business accounting system.

Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1993 19:27:48 GMT

Hi,
We're running UNIX 3.2.2 with TCP/IP 1.1.3.  inetd, the super server, 
comes with two internal serviices, daytime and time, which conform to
the appropriate RFC's.  When I telnet to the port 13, I do get the human
readable time, so things seem o.k.

Programs which we run here, FTP's PC TCP and a PD newsreader for DOS (Trumpet),
would like to get machine readable time from the 'time' service.  Both
programs want to use the UDP version of the service, not the TCP version.
When I scouted out the /etc/inetd.conf file, the distribution copy from
SCO has the upd versions of the services commented out.  When I uncomment
the upd entries, I get slightly different behaviour, but still no results.

Are the upd and tcp versions mutually exclusive (I tried udp only)?  Are the
upd services not supported, hence the distribution comments in /etc/inetd.conf?
The man page for the inetd.conf file (SFF) gives an example where these
two (udp and tcp) are both enabled.  I'm stumped.  Anyone with any insight
would be appreciated.  E-mail me and I will post final results to the group.

Thanks.

Hello Pro's,

I have a small problem with the wy120ak terminfo entry. The init
string sets this terminal up to send <ESC>[ and an upper case char as
specified by ANSI with the cursor keys. This works with wy60ak on my
two Wyse-120 but not with wy120ak. I already got the newest wy120aksls
from sosco.sco.com, no change. I played with the baud rate and with
2400 (normally 9600) the keys <down>, <left> and <right> get
programmed correctly, but the <up> key gets all the remaining setup
string together with its "<ESC>[A" (is2).

I have running WordPerfect 5.0 on these Terminals and this works fine,
I think WP goes to PC-Term mode and reprogrammes the (or some) keys.

Is there a solution except using the init string from wy60ak (more
padding ?) or is there a newer PROM for the Wyse available or maybe
another terminfo entry?

Roman

   It sounds like the CPU was running just fine, but the I/O was blocked.  
I've seen this from oddball hardware such as Perstor ARLL controllers, and I 
don't find it difficult to imagine that an Adaptec bus master board *could* do 
this... but I won't guess why.  I doubt that even the most intense burst of 
I/O (swapping or whatever) to a single disk drive could monopolize the I/O 
bus.  Have you tried varying the 1542's bus master DMA speed?  Perhaps 
increasing it may reduce - or fragment - the blockage time.  Perhaps it's too 
high, and some sort of bus f*ckup is causing an extended blockage.

   Not "supposedly".  Under DOS, I've seen *real* (not Coretest myths) 
transfer rates of over a megabyte per second using the 1522 and 1542, and over 
two megabytes per second using the 1740.  In each case the drive was SCSI-2 
and in synchronous mode.

   Hey, you might want to try enabling/disabling synchronous mode and see if 
that has an effect...

Ram and a 500 Meg Fujitsu SCSI hard drive and ALLWAYS IN-2000 controller
card along with a 4 port Digiboard. Does anyone have any thoughts on
this setup ie: Does SCO work ok with SCSI??

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks

:Your RAM is a little anemic, and The only SCO drivers for the Always come from 
:Always, so you better get them first.

You would save yourself a lot of grief to get either an Adaptec
or BusLogic SCSI adapter.  Both work well and are supported
directly by SCO.  I get very nervous with third party vendors
where I need to have another machine available to make boot disks
before I can install the OS.

:I've been up and running 18 months on SCSI SCO.

I've been running SCSI on various SCO products since 1988 with
very good results.  In fact, we've only installed one non-scsi
SCO system, and that was ESDI because they wanted to use an
internal Hayes fax board that wouldn't allow the machine to boot
with an Adaptec 1542 in the system.
