I reported this right after installing update R on the 286. At that time SCO support told me it was a known bug and had already been reported. I was supposedly put on a "list" to be mailed the fix when it was ready. uptime -w gives the same error - uptime is just a link to w. Talking to SCO lately has seemed like a game of Russian roulette. The lone bullet being a correct answer. I've had similar problems with the sales department also. The answer you get seems to depend on who happens to answer the phone that day (or maybe it's the phase of the moon :-)). Just call back a day later for a different answer. -- Roger A.
