Bash and Ksh
Bash on the linux boxes and Ksh on the single SCO Box.

Bash because it is default and just works well.

The Korn shell gave many of the features now taken for granted with the newer Bash. This is an older box running legacy apps. Don't touch it or you might break it!

Needless to say, when it is time to move the apps to a newer server, the apps will all get ported over to a linux server as we all know what has happened to SCO. (figures too, because that is what I got my cert in! MACE )

SCO USED to have the greatest support site around. If you had a problem the answer was right on their site! After the Caldera buyout they wanted to make a fortune off the SCO license AND the support information. Now they don't have either and we will never setup another SCO box.
