Use netconfig command to setup networking for SCO Openserver.
Please be aware of something with SCO Openserver.
There are basically 2 versions available
1 - SCO Openserver (Host) edition. Which does not have networking built it. It's primarily used for terminals.. character based.
2 - SCO Openserver (Enterprise) edition. Which has networking built it.
If you try and run 'netconfig' and it fails, check to make sure you are running the Enterprise edition of SCO. If you aren't, then you will have to upgrade your O/S to the enterprise edition.

The block-count parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks. If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used.

depending on the size of the partition.
-V, --vname label
Specify the volume label. I have no idea if/where this is used.
-F, --fname name
Specify the filesystem name. I have no idea if/where this is used.
-v, --verbose
Explain what is being done.
-c This option is silently ignored.
-l This option is silently ignored.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
-V, --version
Output version information and exit. Option -V only works as --version when it is the only option.
EXIT CODES
