If you did primary development on an app, find out who owns it now, talk with them.
Or find out which customers still have it as a legacy app. Check them out as well.

A huge amount changed between then and now. And most of it is network-related, critical to business infrastructure. So, learn it. Get Cisco certification (or whatever you worked with before) Don't go out and try to get Linux cert if you never worked on it before.

The combination of older experience and certification with what you had previous experience (modern version) with will be sufficient to get an entry-level position.
