IDS7.31 is certified for the 5.0x platform. SCO 5.05 was frequently used with 7.31.UD5 wich is the latest version. We do have some experience with customer running SCO 5.07 and IDS 7.31.UD5 with hundreds of connections. Forget about 9.4 on SCO, main technical reasons invoked are SCO assembler unstability and requirement for LKP on SCO not supplied anymore. I don't know for Online 5.X on SCO 5.07.
