Hello Mike, The tutorial you were looking at was made using one of our local Galaxy instances, in advance of updating the main public server. The main server already includes most of the tools used in the examples, but two of the format conversion tools ("MasterVar to gd_snp" and "pgSnp to gd_snp") are not posted there yet.
I apologize for the delay. We are in the process of moving some of the tools from the Phenotype Association section of the toolbox to the Convert Formats section, while simultaneously migrating those and the rest of the Phenotype Association tools from their current, manually configured installation method to the new Galaxy Tool Shed paradigm. We have encountered some technical difficulties with that, but we hope to have the update accomplished within the next few weeks. If you need it sooner, let me know and I'll send you the underlying Perl script for the "pgSnp to gd_snp" tool, so you can run that locally to convert your file and then upload the output to your Galaxy history.
