OpenServer 5.0.? Host does not include networking. You need to obtain
the Enterprise version, either by purchase or upgrade.

SCO's product line is very confusing. As I understand it, SCO OpenServer
"HOST" does NOT include any networking (ie TCP/IP) or Xwindows. HOST is for
character based terminals only (which also means no print servers).

You need to upgrade to "Enterprise" to get networking. Which is what we
needed to do to use TCP/IP print servers on our network.

That is why you got the response about it not being a separately licensed
product (anymore).

Maybe someone from SCO can give more information.

I have installed 5.0.4 via fresh install and have not been able to install
TCP/IP. When the Open Server Host 5.0.4 is exploded in software manager
connectivity it does not show a TCP/IP option as an installable service.
TCP/IP is listed under SCO Open Desktop and SCO Open Enterprise however
both of these choices result in a "TCP/IP not licensed" error.

My question is, how do I add the TCP/IP protocol to SCO Open Server 5.0.4
that does not require a license? I have received one reply from SCO that
stated that TCP/IP is not a separately licensed poduct in Open Server 5 and
would like specific information on this topic.

Thanks in advance.

OpenServer Host is a networking-less system. If you wanted networking,
you should not have been sold the Host system. You need to upgrade to
Enterprise to get TCP/IP. You cannot add networking to Host except by
upgrading to Enterprise (and, for 5.0.4, I'd recommend a fresh install
rather than an "intra-upgrade" as you'll get more of the internet
goodies).
