Ken -
We don't install in /usr/sbin.   Our compiler is in /usr/OV/bin.  The
executables are  xnmloadmib and xnmloadmib2, and they call routines in
/usr/OV/lib and none of those call mosy.  Wherever that mosy comes from, we
don't install it and we don't use it.  On my AIX box, I can do a "man mosy" and
that output indicates that they, AIX, supplied it.

As usual James, you d'man.

I should be more articulate and precise about the mosy compiler.

In fact, here is the situation.  I have NetView 5.1.2 installed and find the
following:
/usr/sbin/  ==>    132570  Jul 27 1999 mosy

However, I just installed Nortel's Optivity NMS 9.0.1 for AIX and find:
/usr/lnms/bin  ==>    315214  Jan 28  08:48  mosy

So if NetView is supposed to have an uptodate mosy compiler, why the difference
in size (more than double) in the binaries for Optivity's mosy and NetView's?
