Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
This document describes AttachPak for OS/2 Warp Connect.
RESOLUTION
AttachPak for OS/2 Warp Connect provides a broad set of advanced
connectivity capabilities, including a Lotus Notes Desktop trade-up
from Lotus Notes Express that creates an enhanced enterprise solution
for medium and large corporate customers.
Advanced Connectivity Features
------------------------------
OS/2 Warp Connect offers a full set of integrated networking
capabilities and software that provide peer and remote connections
along with TCP/IP for dial-up and LAN access to the Internet, access to
the most popular online services, and Lotus Notes Express. AttachPak
builds on the foundation of OS/2 Warp Connect to provide advanced
connectivity and groupware capabilities that many businesses require.
In addition to providing access to Notes applications, the AttachPak
allows users to process host information through 3270 terminal
emulation.
AttachPak Offers
----------------
Lotus Notes Desktop
Designed for organizations that want a cost-effective way to deploy
corporate-wide applications. Notes Desktop is a Notes run-time client
that allows users to utilize Notes applications, and includes 25
application templates such as customer tracking, document library, and
work flow. Additionally, Notes Desktop enables organizations to
leverage Notes' unique groupware capabilities, including compound
document management, mobile support, replication, and robust security.
IBM Personal Communications/3270 for OS/2 Entry Level
Allows communication abilities between desktop users and mainframes.
This emulation capability increases productivity for the user by
allowing access to information stored on a host computer within the
organization.
Communications Manager/2 SNA Application Environment
Protects customers' investments by allowing computers to exchange data
with systems using the Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC)
protocol. The SNA Application Environment allows users to access
information from a mainframe or workstation.
Mobile File Sync
Allows LAN clients to disconnect from the network and still work with
cached files from the server. When the client is reconnected, mobile
and server files are synchronized. This ensures that users will be
working with the most current version of their data.
Performance Monitoring
Allows a network administrator to determine if a computer is running at
peak efficiency. System Performance Monitor/2 helps identify and solve
performance issues of OS/2 systems via data collection, recording,
graphing, reporting, and analyzing facilities for a single workstation.
Additional Features
-------------------
Additional features include a Distributed Computing Environment (DCE)
Client, a Dial-in-Access-to-LANs (DIALs) client that allows remote LAN
access using an IBM 8235 Server and AnyNet Sockets for OS/2 to support
protocol independence for Socket applications. AnyNet Sockets for OS/2
allows these applications to run over NetBIOS, IPX, or SNA networks.
AttachPak also provides NetView Distribution Manager/2 (NVDM/2) Start
Up, which downloads the NVDM/2 client that is licensed separately. The
NVDM/2 client permits software distribution over a network.
This addition to the OS/2 Warp family of products further strengthens
the ability of users to grow within the OS/2 Warp product line. Clients
can use the single platform to expand from the premier 32-bit desktop
operating system to OS/2 Warp Connect, LAN Server, and to the upcoming
OS/2 Warp Server.
IBM AttachPak for OS/2 Warp Connect is available through retail outlets
at a suggested retail price of $209. Users can also call 1-800-3IBM-OS2
