INGRES on all Unix? Message-ID: <1990Dec23.182649.3073@eagle.lerc.nasa.gov> Date: 23 Dec 90 18:26:49 GMT Reply-To: hamid@lims01.lerc.nasa.gov Organization: NASA Lewis Research Center Lines: 15 News-Software: VAX/VMS VNEWS 1.3-4 I have to port a dbs from a Sun OS 4.0 systems (BSD 4.2) to an Apollo SR10.2 (seems to emulate? BSD 4.2 fairly thoroughly). The dbs uses INGRES as its db engine. Question: The developer of the system said that most Unix systems come with University INGRES. Is this true? I didn't find it on the Apollo. Also, any thoughts on going from the Sun to the Apollo (e.g., user interfaces issues regarding Sun's curses and termcaps, low level Unix compatiblity for Apollo SR 10.2 support of Unix) Hamid
