I find a mail about something called "VMS842L2A_LDAP-V0300". The question
is if that "V2.4-57A" and "V0300" correlates in some way...

I also find some mail about a kit called "VSI-AXPVMS-LDAP-V0204-59A-1".

I think I asked VSI and the reply was that there was no major change
from 57A to 59A... But why not? Could test on our test system...

Thanks for your pointer and interest.

Jan-Erik.
