We are about to convert from VMS 4.5 to 4.6 - yesterday I have read a mail
in VAXnotes on the "DECUS VAX" (a VAX run by DECUS Germany in Munich), telling
everybody that you will have problems with LTDRIVER.EXE and LATSYM.EXE under
VMS 4.6 and you do need a new version of those programs ! Those version were
planned for VMS 4.7 (???)
According to that message the versions are:
current new
---------------------------------------------
LTDRIVER.EXE ident: "LAT X6N-8" "LAT X7N-14"
LATSYM.EXE ident: "LATSYM V2.0" "LATSYM V2.1"
Is that really mandatory ?
What is the experience on other sites already running VMS 4.6 (+LAT-Software) ?
Any hints or tips are appreciated !
-- We wanted to convert to 4.6 on Thursday (the first of four VAX systems to
be upgraded to the new VMS version) - so it might be good to know in
advance if we do need those new versions !

All the LATPlus software became a part of VMS with 4.6 and was modified or replaced by the 4.6 installation. We have experienced no problems. We have 9 DECserver 200's and 1 DECServer 100 using about a dozen reverse-LAT ports.
