I am trying to install the bsh shell on a SCO unix and i don't know how.
The deal is that i have an old SCO unix running with an old system made with cobol, so it works with shell menus and it use a variety of a shell called bsh (Business Shell) so i search for a package to install to in my SCO virtualized and i don't found it so i don't know how and where to find the package. Anybody knows where i can find it to download it? please is anybody know how to install or where to find it just tell me!

See if the bsh shell is listed in /etc/perms, if so just copy the files from the old system to the new system using the same ownership and permissions.
If it is not in /etc/perms, then copy the file that is first executed to invoke the shell, and then try to run it, and continue copying files until you get no more error messages.

SCO is binary compatible all the way back to Xenix 2.1

Hi.

There is a bsh available in Debian. It's the Bean Shell -- BeanShell - Lightweight Scripting for Java and BeanShell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The is also a Business Shell, bush, but it doesn't appear to be related -- PegaSoft Canada - The Lone Coder - The Business Shell Evolution Blues

Google and Wikipedia are your friends -- best wishes ... cheers, drl

Thks for your reply.
I have do it so and does't work, i think is the version of the O.S. it's telling me "memory fault (coredump)" when i run a copy of the binary "bsh" copied from the old unix system, the version of the old unix is a 5.0.4 SCO and i have to install a 5.0.7 SCO on my HP blade WMWare ESX because of the limitation of the 5.0.4. sco can't support new CPUs.
