Day 4 of the Trial in SCO v. Novell - and Novell's Petition for Certiorari - Updated 5Xs

They played videos in court today, day 4 of SCO v. Novell's jury trial. SCO claims it has a surprise witness, like that surprises anyone that has been following SCO's legal ways. There was a dispute about that, but I gather it will happen eventually. And Novell has filed its notice that it has filed its Petition for Writ of Certiorari with the Supreme Court, asking them to take a look at what the Appeals Court did. We have the document now for you as well.
Update 4: With all the reports now in, what happened today in court becomes clearer: SCO continued its presentation, with video depositions played, of Jack Messman, Doug Michaels, Burt Levine, Jim Wilt, Alok Mohan, and some live testimony by Bill Broderick. And the surprise witness looks like it will be one of the lawyers who drew up the APA, perhaps Aaron Alter, who you may recall worked on the same team as Tor Braham, but Braham was the lead attorney for Wilson Sonsini. He will be testifying for Novell. As you noticed in opening argument, Novell pointed out they had lawyers who drafted both the APA and Amendment 2, and SCO had no lawyers to testify for them. So I gather SCO would like to remedy that.

IPX_CMD(8) System Manager's Manual IPX_CMD(8) NAME
ipx_cmd - bridge between Novell's SCMD driver and local IPX network SYNOPSIS
ipx_cmd -A server name [ -l local interface name ] DESCRIPTION
ipx_cmd moves packets from tapN to server and vice versa. It is something like IPX Tunnel, but it uses Novell Netware 5 server Compatibil- ity Mode Driver (AKA Migration Agent) on the other end of wire. You must first configure your kernel tapN device with IPX EthernetII frame and with network number set up on server (you can use kernel autodetection). OPTIONS
-A server name This is IP name of compatibility mode server. You can use DNS name or dotted quad to specify server address. -l local interface name This allows you to specify, which of your IP addresses should be used as IP address of client side of CMD driver. You must configure your tapN device with hardware address 7E:01:AA:BB:CC:DD, where AA:BB:CC:DD is your IP address in hexa. EXAMPLE
If you are on server platan.vc.cvut.cz (147.32.240.81) and your migration agent runs on server boris.vc.cvut.cz, you can configure your system with: insmod ethertap ifconfig tap0 hw ether 7E:01:93:20:F0:51 up ipx_interface add -p tap0 EtherII ipx_cmd -A boris.vc.cvut.cz -l 147.32.240.81 & BUGS
This program was written to satisfy my own needs and should be really improved. At least it should configure tap interface itself. AUTHOR
