Compleete Vms newcommer

Post by flipper8827 » Wed Aug 10, 2022 8:28 pm

I have never used Vms before however, I have been an avid user of the other Unix like operating systems such as Free, Open and NetBSD. In addition I have also virtualized quite a few of the different flavors of Linux but I have absolutely no experience with any operating system earlier than ms-dos or the Windows flavors of the 9x series and Xp/7 and 8/10 era of windows releases in addition to the windows and BSD experience I have tuns of experience with Debian Linux and a wide array of its offspring. This being said I am also quite proficient in most of the community driven linux and BSD distributions.

EDIT: Community have got back to me and been very helpful sorting out the missing information. Thanks to both them and sms
