       NAME
             fixshlib - (XENIX) alter executables to call SCO UNIX System
             V/386 Release 3.2-compatible libnsl

       SYNOPSIS
             /usr/sbin/fixshlib file

       DESCRIPTION
             SCO applications installed with the custom command [see
             custom(1M_XNX)] will automatically have references to libnsl
             changed to reference a SCO UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2-
             compatible libnsl (/shlib/libNSL_s).  However, you may need to
             run fixshlib on any SCO UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2
             application that is not installed using the custom command.
             The fixshlib command will alter the executable to use the SCO
             UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2-compatible libnsl.

             When executing the command, file is the pathname of the
             executable to be modified.

       REFERENCES
             custom(1M_XNX), fixperm(1M_XNX), xinstall(1M_XNX)

       DIAGNOSTICS
             If file is not a COFF format a.out executable, you will see
             the following error message:
                   unknown file type - possibly bad magic: Error 0

       NOTICES
             If fixshlib is run on a non-SCO UNIX executable, the
             executable will no longer execute properly and will be
             unusable.  Therefore, as a precaution, we recommend that you
             make a copy of each executable before you run fixshlib on it.
             If your executable fails because fixshlib should not have been
             run on it, you can restore it from the copy you made.
             Otherwise, you will have to re-install the application that
             contained the executable.
