Huh?  When you install SCO Unix, you are given the choice of whether
or not you want C2 security enabled.  Even if you choose "yes", you
can still disable it later on.  Use the /etc/relax command.

Note that once you go from C2->regular, you may not be able to get
back to C2 without reinstalling the system, though.
