Sorry all, another VMWare question here!
I've been trying without success for a couple of days
to get a SCO VM system running.
I'm using VMWare Server which also has a couple of
Linux based systems which do work fine.
The problem is quite weird.
Basically, once booted I can "see out", from the
SCO box - ping websites, telnet to other local machines
etc...
In addition from the machine running the VM I can telnet
in, browse served Apache pages etc...
Problems start when I attempt to connect from other machines
on the network - they can ping the SCO VM system, but can't
telnet in, or for example Apache doesn't serve pages.
It's not completely broken because there is some evidence of
a connection on the SCO end, eg. when I telnet I see this :-
Trying 10.80.14.205...
Connected to 10.80.14.205 (10.80.14.205).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
addresses on the Internet, then it has to be either a security
setting (e.g. /etc/hosts.allow or /etc/hosts.deny with libwrap)
or your (x)inetd is not allowing these services.
I have never used SCO 5.0.7 or higher so don't know how it comes
configured by default, but no sane system these days will allow
unrestricted telnet access out of the box.

Liberals love to say things like, 'We're just asking everyone to pay
their fair share.' But government is not about asking. It is about telling.
The difference is fundamental. It is the difference between making love and
being raped, between working for a living and being a slave.
