Dave,
There is a netdb.h on the TCPIP 592 disk too. Might it have got in
the way. Though I must admit to some puzzlement at the declaration of
the function in netdb.h.y on my 5.2. I haven't the stamina to figure
out what the macro __new4104 does for you. Maybe Mike Donovan is
reading this.

Sorry about that, I should have made that clear in my first note ...I am

Thanks for taking the time to compile this code on another platform.
I'll try to see if I can't get the complete C file to compile and

Hello Everyone,
I am just being to review LINUX on z/VM. I have played with it
on a PC, took an IBM install class way back when.
The question I have been asked is Linux for z/VM truly free?.
Or are there costs that HAVE to be incurred?
Salesmen never true answers.

You need to convince the compiler that your target is beyond 4104
somehow. Maybe the LE user's guide has the answer.

Whether Linux is truly cost-free depends a lot on how you look at
things. If you consider disk space and processor time to be free, and
also support staff and programmer time as free, then yes, Linux is free
(as in beer). You can download Centos Slackware and Debian without
charge, and use the
Hi Edward; Welcome to the game
The cost of Linux may all be related to what you plan to do with it. For a
proof of concept, and if you¹re familiar with Linux already, you could try
the Debian distribution, which has no cost. There are one or two others as
well which should be free

Biggest gotcha there is that the IUCV protocol that drives those SFS/BFS

non-IBM systems or mostly OCO systems, eg Linux or z/OS.

if you are interested in a free C compiler for z/VM (CMS) you might want
to look at the port of gcc over to that environment. The porting effort

IUCV isn't hard -- that's been done. It's the dataflow verbs and
