If you can't get the Ultrix flavor of the supporting software, get the VMS
version and transfer the load file with FTP or whatever - be sure to use
"binary mode".  The format of the VMS binary load image is compatible with
the Ultrix MOP support, and with appropriate entries in the DECnet node
database, Ultrix can download most devices.
