Overview
Himalaya File and Printer Server for Windows workstations.
Customers
Installed at Banks
and Financial services companies as well as systems for Stock Exchange
market.
Quick and easy installation
A quick and easy
installation connects Himalaya to your LAN in less than 10 minutes. No
changes to your existing network. If you already have an RFC-TCP/IP network,
for example as provided with Windows workstations, then a Himalaya machine
running Fusion95 can be added to your network without you needing to change
any server or workstation. Just plug in Fusion95, and all existing users can
immediately access Himalaya applications and resources.
Simple configuration
from Windows or Himalaya
Fusion95 provides
easy to use configuration utilities that can either run in Windows or in the
Himalaya system. This allows the administrator to configure Fusion95 from
anywhere in the LAN or even across a WAN. The Windows based administration
program shows graphically all the Fusion95 servers in the network. The
administrator can view, add, change or delete disk and printer resources as
well as users. It is possible to restrict administration from Windows to
certain users, or to require special password authentication. It is also
possible to restrict administration read and update rights for specific
Fusion95 machines.
Enhanced Guardian File Support!
Version 6, available
now, have full support for manipulating Edit (101) and C Data (180) files,
in addition to existing support for unstructured files in the Guardian file
system and all files in the OSS environment. This makes the Guardian
environment as easy as the OSS environment with Fusion95, a great
enhancement for developers and other users.
With Fusion95 also comes AniTa, a Windows Terminal Emulator with automatic
revamping features.
Supports enhanced SMB
and CIFS protocols
The enhanced SMB and
CIFS protocols are supported to provide additional features especially in
conjunction with Microsoft's Windows95/98/ME and Windows NT/2000/XP. This
includes: Support for long filenames. Support of user authentication via
passthrough to a Windows Domain Controller or locally via User-Level or
Share-Level security. Supports dynamic use of shared resources (e.g.
\\SERVER\DISK\DIRECTORY\FILE.EXT). "Big buffer" support uses 64KB blocks for
best performance. Shared disk resources can be configured as read-only.
Trigger-technology
Revolutionary new
trigger-technology allows Himalaya applications to monitor, filter and
change server actions when a user accesses disks and files. Specific actions
can be configured to trigger when specific events occur. For example:
-
An application unique
authorization check can be triggered when a PC user maps a specific
Fusion95 shared disk.
-
The contents of a
Himalaya file can be updated immediately by a Himalaya application when a
PC user attempts to open it via a Fusion95 shared disk.
Features and Benefits
-
Use programs such as
Windows Explorer to browse the NonStop Himalaya file system.
-
Read and write access to
NonStop Himalaya files from Windows applications without separate upload
or download of the files.
-
Read and write access to
Guardian Edit (101), C Data (180) and Unstructured files.
-
Read and write access to
all OSS files.
-
Uses native Guardian NSK
security for all file accesses (the system administrator maps Windows
Users to Guardian User IDs using the system administration program.)
-
Easy installation. No
need to install any additional client software on individual workstations.
-
Printers attached to the
NonStop Himalaya system can be used by Windows applications.
-
Printers attached
to Windows systems can be used by NonStop Himalaya OSS application. This
applies even if the printer is directly attached to the PC and does not
have it's own TCP/IP address.
Software/OS
pre-requisites
The Himalaya server
must have OSS, TCP/IP, and a G06 NonStop Kernel Plug-and-play with the
following PC Network clients running RFC-TCP/IP Network:
-
Windows XP, 2000 / 2003
-
Windows 95, 98, ME, NT
