Problems with migration from Reliant Unix to Solaris

Smilie Hello folks, my company had decided to migrate from Reliant Unix to Solaris. We have an amount of sources
that have to be changed a little, because these UNIX'es are slightly different. Is there a tool (hopefully free), which can do this job? Does anyone know the exactly differences, I think CURSES will be one importent.

Thank's in advance for some hints , Ruediger.

MySQL ...............

hi,
cannot believe that any program will do that changes for you... there is an offer from sun to migrate any unix derivat to solaris for you, but that costs a "little" bit ;-)
it will belong to your scripts whether it is possible to change it, if it is only a "normal" shell script or perl script it could be easy but if you are using OS specific feature you have to find an alternativ command....

look at that sun news, could be interessting for you

happy to see a new SUN member ;-)

Thank's pressy,

the migration should cost possibly nothing, as you can think.

I than have to do it for my own.
