You now have samba like most Linux/Unix Systems that replaces VisionFS.

UnixWare 7.1.0 was bundled with two outstanding applications in my opinion, that make it more useful than some Os's. The Webtop and Visionfs open doors like no other programs I have ever seen (except a web browser, of course).

UnixWare's 'more' lets you scroll up line by line.

UnixWare's ftp daemon lets users compress and/or tar archives on the fly of uncompressed / untar'ed files or directories.

There is a package called Reliant HA which is a way to institute high availability with Uw7 hosts, so that you can share the load to a group of servers and have reduncany at the same time.

NSC, Non-Stop Clusters, institute high availability and failover to identical Uw7 hosts in a cluster, so that you can share the load to a group of servers and have redundcany at the same time.

SCO merged it's server division with Caldera, a lead supplier of Linux, and UnixWare7 will shortly introduce a concurrently running Linux kernel beside your Uw7 kernel. Dual OS's running transparently.

Shortly, we may see NAT for Uw7. I have heard it is being tested.
