Wish I was so lucky. File gives me " ELF 32-bit MSB executable, SPARC32PLUS, V8+ Required, Sun UltraSPARC1 Extensions Required, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped"
I have a stack of Sun Ultra60s in the closet, and maybe 1 or 2 working Sun 13W3 monitors (hope they don't pop as soon as they fire up!). And who knows if they work. And I have no clue what the superuser password is either :-) This could be a fun ending to a not-so-bad week for me actually. Phillip Partipilo Parametric Solutions Inc.

At one point in time you could run Solaris binaries under Linux, but that was before that feature was removed - no one used it. If it's an old SPARCstation or UltraSPARC you'll need to find the appropriate hardware - an Ultra 5 or SunBlade is cheap on eBay. Phillip Partipilo wrote: > Weird one.
