I have put a functional qmgr executable in sgi.com, available for anonymous ftp. Log in as 'anonymous' with a password of your username, then cd to pub. Install the executable in /usr/sbin, with user and group of bin, permissions of 6111. We at SGI apologize for this mistake. Jerre Bowen (bowen@sgi.com)
