Sorry, I screwed up the syntax

Thanks to:

The correct command(s) is:

strings /usr/shlib/libXm.so | grep Motif

grep -i Motif /usr/shlib/libXm.so | grep -i version

After talking to DEC/Compaq support, I got my answer. Use the following
command

grep /usr/shlib/libXm.so | grep Motif

Thanks

My original question:

>Our DBA is attempting to run Servermanager for Oracle. She has

version on that release is OSF/Motif 1.2.4. How do I verify what version
of the OS Motif I am running?

TIA
