http://x2c.dtop.com/x2c-linux.htm will let you convert xbase to c. So does http://www.icewalk.com/softlib/app/app_00664.html You can run FoxPro for DOS under Linux in DOS emulation. SuSE used to have FlagShip on their CDs. (Now?) http://www.fship.com/demo_linux7.html FlagShip apparently has a Visual version coming soon. JLK

Hi,
I'd like to change an old SCO UNIX 3.2 server by a GNU/Linux one. This server is running a FoxBase Application, but I haven't got the sources.
I was thinking on running the FoxBase SCO binaries on Linux using iBCS, but at this moment I have not been able to make it work.
Time ago I ran a SCO program succesfully using iBCS, I remember it was easy, just install de ibcs2 rpm and run the application.
I've been searching on the web and I've found that some people recommend using the DOS version (with DOSEMU) for performance but I've read about some people that has use the SCO FoxBase with Linux, as long as I don't have the sources I think the only way I can use this program on Linux is using iBCS.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Manuel Martínez Valls

I have used iCBS2 successfully on SuSE 7.0. Just install the rpm and load the module. Some progs need SCO specific libraries, so access to a SCO system that can run your application is advisable. I have had one minor problem with iCBS - a data server we use (Sculptor kfserver) would not spawn multiple processes under iBCS. Don't know why!

Unscientific theories -Marxist dialectical history and Freudian psychology were Popper's favorites- are formed in such a way that they cannot be falsified by data.
