Unfortunately, The API and libraries are not available for FreeBSD or BSDI. However, they are available for Sco. So my big question is this: is it possible to link to an emulated library from a native executable? Can I use the SCO api to write *BSD programs? I know, it's a strange and kludgy way of doing things, but I'm running out of Ideas. Any information anyone can provide would be _greatly_ appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jay Kuri
