The problem may have been when they were written to the cd. If you first tar the files from the original SCO server and then ftp them, you might be able to burn the cd and then be able to get them off of it on the your SCO system. Then extract the tar file (I would also use compression - either the compress or gzip utility for all of it) and install on your server. Or, ftp them straight from the one SCO to the other without burning to cd.
