You know, I've never seen anyone ask about this, so I have the uneasy
feeling that *everybody* knows the answer to this except me, but I'll risk
looking like a fool and ask anyway... :-)

If I do a uname on a Digital Unix box, I get the version (eg, 3.2), and
some numbers. I assume that these numbers are a patch-level of some sort.
But my question is, how can I figure out what version I'm running from
these numbers?

                    Foolishly yours,
