Software packaging and distribution options for OpenServer & earlier releases
My advice, at this point, is "just say no" to CDMT. The CDMT tools generate a format known as SSO's that can only be read by OpenServer that is an evolutionary dead end. They're not going to be supported in UnixWare 7, and they're not supported by the OS versions prior to OpenServer. Walk away while you can. I would be remiss to not point out the widespread public opinion that SSO's, custom+, cdmt, and the rest of this way of life are, uh, not going to win any popularity contests.

There is a TLS on ftp://ftp.sco.com/TLS/tls602.ltr that contains some more information on how to make SSOs if you insist.

There is a TLS on ftp://ftp.sco.com/TLS/tls036.ltr that contains the Software Mastering Toolkit (SMT) that lets you build "classic custom" volumes that will install on any SCO Unix release.
