Is it just for those who don't have Linux for Z but want to run Linux applications on the mainframe? Does it allow "direct access" to z/OS resources (databases, CICS, etc.)? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
