First of all, the above posting was not the opinion of my employer,
Victoria College.  It was mine.  I might just explain it a little more:

Victoria College and Sigma Data had a Site Review meeting on the 11th of
October, at which the matter of a DYNIX upgrade for Victoria College was
raised.  I was not present at this meeting, but was made aware of what
was discussed.  Sigma Data agreed to pursue our desire for a DYNIX
upgrade, and since the meeting (but after my above posting), I have been
informed that we will be getting such an upgrade, as per our original
agreement with Sigma Data.

I am pleased at this outcome, and given our past relationship with Sigma
Data, which was more than satisfactory, have had my faith restored in Sigma
Data and Sequent.

By the way, I haven't found a version of netstat(1) that I can get going
yet (but I don't think I'll need it now).
