I didn't see any issues regarding the differences in endian structure format  differences between Sun and Linux? Linux stores data in the opposite endian format as Sun. From my research the data would have to be moved using ; BINARY WITH NULL BYTE ? Did none of you run into this when moving the data from Sun to Linux Sybase IQ?
I had understood endian to be more a matter of hardware than of O/S. For example simply changing O/S but remaining on the same hardware wouldn't have this issue.

We don't know enough here to know if that's the case. Good catch of a potential issue though!
