FreeBSD seems to be the better option over Linux 3. i want to run an Informix V5.x database Question ? Has anyone installed an Informix DB on FreeBSD before ? If so pls let me know any tricks etc that will ensure a successfull installation. i have heard that FreeBSD is SCO compatible, is this so ? if so, is all i need a version of Informix ported for SCO ? thanks in advance Darren Edgerton
