Hi Chen,

How many ports are you looking for?

I work at Digi International, and did the port of our Unixware 7.x ->
OpenServer 6 drivers for a couple of our products.

Assuming you are looking for a 2, 4 or 8 port PCI card, you could get our
Acceleport Xr 920 PCI product,
which is supported under OpenServer 6.

I am also in the process of writing an OpenServer 6 driver for our cheaper
2, 4 and 8 port products called the "Neo PCI".
Since we didn't have a Unixware 7.x driver for that board, this driver I
actually have to do some work, and actually
write the driver from scratch. =)

Finally, you could get a board called the Digi Classic PCI board, which is
supported directly by OpenServer 6.
(It gets autodetected by the kernel and installs just like the built-in COM
ports)
I believe it comes in a 4 and 8 port model.
However, if you go with this board, you MUST go to the latest and greatest
MP from SCO, as there were
some problems with their driver with the original release of OpenServer 6.
