Disk Access Lite 5

If you need to integrate Windows systems into multi-vendor networks and access NFS-based file and print resources on UNIX and mainframe hosts, then you need DiskAccess™ or DiskAccess LITE.

The DiskAccess products are SSCs NFS clients for the Windows environment. You can connect to resources with drag-and-drop ease and manage file permissions from within Windows property sheets.

Using Windows Explorer, Network Neighborhood, or File Manager, you can browse and connect to file systems and printers located on UNIX, Linux or other NFS systems.

With either version of DiskAccess, you can browse NFS resources without committing a drive letter, accessing network file systems only when you need them. Or you have the option of establishing a full-time link to your server. Browsed connections are mounted and unmounted automatically, and shortcuts to frequently accessed NFS folders or files can be added to the desktop. This approach makes accessing resources easier, reduces NFS server load, and improves overall network performance.

Main Features:

- RPCInfo utility catalogs Remote Procedure Call activity to aid in identifying network problems.
- ShowMount utility identifies exported file systems and access privileges.
- Dos-to-unix file conversion.
- PCNFSD and NIS support for security ensures that only authorized users and systems have access to networked resources and corporate data.
