SCO TCP/IP Runtime for SCO UNIX v/386
This product will commence shipping by 24/9/90 (product code SS 44958)
at an RRP of £350. The product will contain a flysheet which documents the installation
procedure, however the procedure is further clarified here.
If you have installed the beta release of the product then you should
remove this using "custom" before installing the final release product. However
it is still advisable to make copies of the files /etc/hosts and /etc/hosts.equiv
beforehand as this will speed the implementation of the final release product. Other areas
such as MMDF (Unix mail) are affected by the install procedure, if any changes have been
made then these should also be backed up.
Installation is a two stage procedure as the installation of UNX235 is
required before the installation of the TCP/IP can commence. The following line in
/etc/perms/inst should be changed from
| £rel=3.2.0b |
to |
£rel=3.2.0f |
this will then allow you to install using UNX235 using /etc/xinstall.
The disk contains a new version of "tar" which allows compression..
Follow the procedure on the flysheet to install the TCP/IP product and
then once the system has been rebooted edit the following files or restore the files
previously saved.
Insert in the file /etc/hosts lines similar to:
| 89.0.0.1 |
diamond |
| 89.0.0.2 |
opal |
Where the number is the Internet address of each machine on the network
and the text is the name of the machine on that Internet address.
Insert into the file /etc/hosts.equiv lines which contain the machine
names which are on the network (these are the names used in the /etc/hosts file).
Once these files have been edited you should be able to access other
machines using utilities like rlogin, rcp and ruptime.
