- Am seeking Beta test sites for a product offering:
- a. End-user menuing in a timesharing, Host/character-terminal mode of
- operations. (Most likely HP 9000/8xx, but may also be applicable for
- 73x's or 75x's used as servers).
- b. Increased levels of (optional) access control over end-users,
- terminals/devices, and applications:
- 1) Time-of-day, day-of-week, and/or start-date/end-date combinations.
- 2) Additional password protection.
- 3) Termination of idle/inactive user sessions.
- c. Simplified system adimistration effected over classes of end-users,
- terminals/devices, and applications.
-
- This product is targeted at installations where there exists a set of
- end-users who must use a unix system to do their jobs, but who are
- neither schooled nor interested in becoming unix literate.
- For example: accountants, salespersons, school teachers, doctors, lawyers,
- indian chiefs, etc. Such users benefit from a simple menu system
- and insulation from the unix shell's command-line interface.
- This is not a product for software engineers, programmers, or other unix
- adept personnel.
