You shouldn't have to do anything special to see the directory tree in
Windows Explorer, assuming that the Folders view is enabled, as it
should be by default. Just enter:

ftp://root:password@10.0.0.1/

in the address bar (using the actual IP address and root password, if
you're comfortable with this lack of security), and your SCO directory
tree will appear under My Network Places.
