Thanks, this community is just the best.

I downloaded firebird-boot-kit-.tar.gz
theres seems to be 2 builds linux and AIX . I'm a little confused on where
to start

a port to linux, a port to AIX or an original 6.01 if there is such a thing.

I'm not sure where that would be. but if 5.5 was ported to SCO wouldn't
6.01 original be closer to what I am wanting.
