Hi,

 

I am investigating a change to Linux from a windows based product that allows me to communicate with a VAX/VMS system. It will be 'talking' to VMS V5.2, via LAT protocol 4.7. Will the latest version of Debian Linux? I understand from one of our software engineers that a kernel of 2.6 would be preferable, but 2.4 would work OK?

 

Thanks for any advice you can provide.

 

Regards,
