[comp.sys.ibm.pc] News for Xenix on PC AT ?

dantso@bach.UUCP (04/16/87)

	Sorry if this issue has been covered before....

	Has anyone ported/tried to run 2.11 news on a PC AT running Xenix ?

	Any particular problems, hints ? If the work is substantial, can it be
obtained ?

	Thanks.

I have 2.11 news, patch #8, running on my SCO XENIX system.
It came up much easier than earlier systems; the main problem
was in working around Microsoft's broken implementation of
the System V lockf() calls as non-advisory.
