Seriously though, 1. Try AT&T - they started it all. 2. Try ULTRIX-11 from Digital - they always change the name or do something to confuse the user. Support may be hard to get today. 3. You could try your local DECUS office - there are some ULTRIX utilities in the DECUS Library but as yet Digital has not donated ULTRIX-11 as far as I know - maybe we should encourage them.
