Sorry for the duplicate post - subject missing from initial post. I was finally able to get 3.23.52 successfully compiled and running on SCO 5.0.6 with the help of list members; gcc 2.95.2, FSU pthreads and the SCO assembler with libraries were used for the build.
The server and client programs for 3.23.52 seem to function correctly on the SCO box, and Windows XP clients on the network can access the server with mysqlgui or MS Access using the myodbc 2.50 ODBC driver. I next tried to get 4.0.3 to compile and install (after removing 3.23.52), as an app I am developing may not be ready until one of the 4.x versions is considered production level. The source compiles without error, installs, and mysql_install_db runs without error. Mysqld_safe seems to load, but both mysqlgui and Access hang when trying to contact the server from the network, and both mysqladmin and mysql hang after loading. Using -enable-thread-safe-client for configuration didn't make any difference for the unix-based clients. I didn't expect the Windows clients to connect, as privileges couldn't be granted without functioning mysqladmin or mysql on the server box. However, they should have received the error "host "xyz" is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server" rather than hanging. I uninstalled 4.0.3 and rebuilt/installed 3.23.52 just to make sure that I hadn't made any system changes, and 3.23.52 (server and client programs) still runs without error. David P.
