'''ULTRIX-11''' was available for the PDP-11 and can be obtained up to version 3.1 from [[The Unix Heritage Society's archive|TUHS]]. It will run under SIMH (and other PDP-11 emulators).

'''ULTRIX-32''' for the VAX was derived from 4.2 BSD with some influences from SYSV and included support for specific DEC technologies. ULTRIX-32 is now available from TUHS. The latest version is 4.5 from 1995. It will run under the VAX simulator in SIMH.

Ultrix for [[DECStation]] is not available from TUHS.  The latest version is 4.5 from 1995.  This version will also run, (Including CDE + X11!} under [[GXemul]].
 
 
 
==Y2K compatability==
 
 
 
It's been confirmed that 4.0 is NOT y2k compatable...  Not many UNIX from the 1990's or prior are so it's really no surprise...
 
 
 
==Running ULTRIX==
 
 
 
[[SIMH]] will run Ultrix.  Right now, only 4.0 on the microVAX II is currently known to work.
