Firstly, I'm no expert with Unixware but have an appreciation of Unix systems generally. I've been asked to help with a P2V of an aging server and me and the guy that asked for help have hit some snags.

We found a procedure on the internet that we thought might help which depends on an installation CD. The original 7.1.1 CD is not available so we've been using 7.1.4 and maybe there are bigger differences than we imagined.
My questions are:
1) has anybody here got experience of moving a 7.1.1 P2V?
2) I'm sure I read somewhere that 7.1.1 was free. Can that be right?
3) If 2 is right where can I download it?
Thanks for your help.
