Michael, I have downloaded and untarred. Basically it unzips into a series of tar files. The tar files contain the required files for installation. I ran the installation and it appears to work correctly but I haven't read the doc's far enough to figure out how to start the engine. FWIW, I looked at Informix's pricing. As near as I can deduce it will be about $295.00 USD per seat. This is substantially more than ~$150.00 for MS SQL Server. I think it is alot more than Interbase also. I know Sybase SQL Anywhere doesn't have a Linux version (but I suspect they soon will). Their pricing is about $80 USD Per seat. Personally, I want to look at the 10 seat version of ADABAS and see how it works. George Sexton MH Software, Inc.

Has anyone used the newly available informix SE for linux? It particularly states "made for RedHat and SuSE". Im downloading it as we speak. Its about 9mb in size and the connection seems rather poky. Check out www.informix.com for details.

I know its in bad taste to followup my email but... I am curious if whether anyone getting the informix bundle was able to untar and unzip the contents. It seems that the installer directories for me are damaged. Has anyone gotten the archives and successfully extracted them? Could someone tell me exactly what is in theese directories? Thanks. -- Michael E.
