What's New in This Release

TotalNET Administration Suite

TotalNET Administration Suite (TNAS) allows you to configure the TotalNET network through HTML menus and dialogue boxes, just as TotalAdmin did for TotalNET Advanced Server (TAS) in previous releases of TAS. TotalAdmin constitutes one sphere of TNAS.

New TotalAdmin

The presentation and arrangement of TotalAdmin menu items reflect the new, intuitive TNAS framework.

HTML Documentation

You can now access TAS on-line documentation-- TAS Administration Manual, TAS Reference Manual, and, if applicable, TAS-DCE Manual--in HTML.

File Name Mapping

The way TAS handles filename case now defaults to case-preservation, in which TAS maps case to UNIX exactly as given by the client, instead of to lower-case.

Improved Utility Performance

The TotalNET remote utilities, such as the ru- and nc- utilities, now support long file names, the tnpasswd utility performs more efficiently, the "CAP to MAC" utility works with TAS 5.0 file formats, the atconvert utility allows you to convert from Helios to TAS, and NetWare client utilities function more intuitively.

Enhanced Tracing

You can now turn tracing on and off from all three realms and for all file services, and you can do so more easily than in previous releases.

AppleTalk Printer Access from All Realms

This feature allows you to print to AppleTalk printers through TAS. TAS extends outbound and inbound support to the PAP driver.
