From the new machine:
Code:
#ftp old_machine
>root password
>cd /whereever
>get filename
>mget *.files
>quit
#mv received file to correct location
#chmod files to correct permissions

To move a user account use the following, on the old machine run
Code:
#ap -d user >/tmp/user.data

Then ftp /tmp/user.data to the new machine
Code:
#ap -r -f /tmp/user.dat

to restore the user data.
This does not create or copy the user's home directory, but it does copy the password and gives the user the same uid on both machines.

host name.
Yes you can use a windows ftp client as well.
Just turn off translation, assuming that you are going to copy the files back to the new SCO system.

If you used the same license on both machines and they are both on the same subnet one of them may shutdown.
