You should be able to get ksh from the ATT Toolchest.  There is a
charge, but not a lot.  (I don't know anything about how to contact
the toolchest.  However the support people or your ATT salesperson
should know that.  The toolchest is an arrangement where you issue a
blanket P.O., and then request individual pieces of software which you
download via UUCP and get billed for.  It's for "minor" pieces of
software that they want to make readily available, don't want to
bother selling as products in the conventional way, but want to
preserve control over.)  As far as I know, no version of ksh is public
domain.  Of course if ATT is prepared to say in writing that they have
made it public domain, I'm sure someone would be happy to post the
source.
