I am sick and tired of hearing everyone say SCO's C2
is not worth anything... Here is an example of someplace
it *DID* help...

At one of my jobs, we have SCO ODT installed (full server
version and stuff)..

One day I tried to call in from home and found the terminal
line Disabled by the C2 security.. This seemed odd..

So I looked into it and then enabled it again.

Over the next week or two, we had the line locked/disabled
by C2 every couple days... Finnaly it stopped for no reason.

We have checked EVERYONE's accounts and they are all ok with
no illegal accesses found. 

Thus we concluded that someone was TRYING to break in to our
system but gave up after being locked out after a few tries
each day... 

We are THANKFUL that SCO *DID* Have C2 in the system or that
person may have actually GOTTEN in!!

Now SCO's C2 does have it's problems.. That I will agree,
but it does not take much extra time to use it correctly!
