I have moved both RM cobol and Microfocus cobol to GNUcobol on Linux. Alternatively you could run a regular install of openserver 6.0 on recent hardware.

You can determine the version of SCO by

Code:

 #uname -X

and show any patches etc by

Code:

 #custom

MicroFocus cobol is usually installed in /opt/lib/cobol, and there should be a /usr/bin/cobrun. The source code usually has a .cbl extension, and the executables either .int or .gnt. If you have the full compiler installation, you should also have a /usr/bin/cobol, and a /usr/bin/anim. MF cobol is copy protected so you need the original license code in order to move it to a new disk. For RM cobol, there should be a /usr/rmcobol directory, and a /usr/bin/runcob or runcob85.

NAME

       shells - shell database

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/shells

DESCRIPTION

       The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser-
       shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root.

       A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by  the  routines
       which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored.

       The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/ksh93, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh,
       /bin/sh, /bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/ksh93, /usr/bin/pfcsh,
       /usr/bin/pfksh, /usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh, and /usr/sfw/bin/zsh. /etc/shells overrides the default list.

       Invalid shells in /etc/shells could cause unexpected behavior, such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1).
