Hope someone can help here.....

I'm looking for some websites with info on VAX/VMS. I've tried google, yahoo and other search engines, but to no avail.

Am I looking in the correct place??

Hi,

These forums are not about VMS... anyway, start here http://www.levitte.org/~ava/index.htmlx .

Is it wrong to say that Vax is the little brother of UNIX?

Hum... it makes no sense... Vax is a hardware platform, Unix is software, operating system to be more precise...
I think you're trying to compare VMS and Unix... well, only for those who don't know VMS will call it Unix... VMS doesn't look like Unix or Unix like VMS, they have few thing in common... 2 different operating systems...

Brother of UNIX? - distant cousin maybe. NT would be a closer relative to VMS than VMS to UNIX.

He did say VAX, not VMS.

VAX is the name of a hardware architecture, like sparc or pa-risc. BSD unix was born on a VAX. I worked on Vaxen using both BSD and Ultrix.

Many design decisions in the BSD kernel were made based on the VAX architecture.

But I still would not call VAX a "little brother" of Unix.
