We used Debian at 2.4.21 in the test cases. As long as it's a reasonably modern kernel, it should work. And, yes, this is an ideal use for hipersockets. You want a fast low-latency pipe for the Amanda server to z/OS piece -- NFS isn't very bright about retrying timeouts. The Amanda server to Aman

Given that there is absolutely no security involved with that file system, I would strongly recommend against installing it on your Linux/390 systems.
