Dec 5000/240, running 4.2a Ultrix. How does one run an upgrade or security patch?
I have the appropriate CD mounted. I can see the files ie. "DXMDECW113".
I can see the directory instcntrl which I assume controls the install, but 
which command do I use to perform the actual install? I have tried the command
"install" without success. Thanks for any suggestions.
