OK, I see a ptf for a year 2000 problem with Unixware 2.1. What about
Unixware 1.1 and 2.0 ?

I believe that SCO has officially stated that they don't
intend to support 1.x, so you're probably SOL if you still have it.

According to the info at the SCO/UnixWare website:

http://www3.sco.com/Products/Whitepapers/yr2000wp.html

UnixWare 1.1: upgrade to 2.1

Now, does anyone know the upgrade path from (Novell) UnixWare 2.01 to
(SCO) UnixWare 2.03??? (or will TF2243 work on UW2.01?)

Alternately, does anyone know if the old Novell UnixWare 2.01 product
is the same thing as SCO's "UnixWare Server Merge 2.01"?
(or SCO(r) UnixWare(r) Server Merge(tm) 2.01)

You can get the PTFs to go from 2.01 to 2.03 from the SCO ftp site free.

I believe that the "Server Merge" product is for running DOS and Win
programs on an application server.

update203 is available on SCO ftp site to upgrade from 2.01 to 2.03 &
BTW
2.03 was Novell, first 'SCO' release was 2.1 (which was about
99.999999999%
Novell engineered anyway).

100%. The ctime dates on the SCO UnixWare 2.1 CD-ROM (the commercial
version) are Dec 12 and Dec 13 1995. The business was transitioned
to SCO on 31 Jan 1996.
