No, no, I already did that.  I was sort of hoping that it would do
what it said it would do.  Unfortunately, even with "c2" changed to
"c1" in /etc/auth/system/default, and unx257 installed, su(1) still
gives the "Sorry" message when I try to su from my account to root.

I've given up on the SCO su(1).  I don't think SCO is ever going to be
able to make SCO Unix act like "real Unix" -- i.e., you type "su", and
after you enter the correct password, you ARE root.  The only thing to
identify you as your previous user is your utmp record.
