I did try to install it also to FreeBSD 205R, but had this problem: (Did
send this question to FreeBSD-questions  27 Sep 1995, but got no reply.)

Hi!

I am trying to install from CD-ROM WP6.0 for SCO Unix on FreeBSD 2.0.5R.

In ./install.wp install I am getting this error:

libsocket: open(/dev/socksys) failure: No such file or directory

I have done   sh MAKEDEV socksys  (and rebooted).

It did not help. I am getting same error message.

Can someone help me, please?
