2.7.7Advanced Server for UNIX V3.5

Advanced Server for UNIX V4.0 is compatible with V3.5 except for the following:

●Intel systems are not longer supported (e.g. SINIX-L/-M/-Z and UnixWare).

●AS/X V4.0 needs at least SINIX / Reliant UNIX -N/-Y V5.43C00.

●AS/X V4.0 needs additional software installed on the SINIX / Reliant UNIX (see section “Hardware and software requirements” ).

Important changes to V3.5:

Advanced Server for UNIX has the following new or modified features:

●NT style printing is supported and gives the possibility to install printer drivers for Windows 95/98 and Windows NT on the server. It is no longer neccesary to install the printer driver on each client manually.

●A Windows NT compatible WINS-service is available with Advanced Server for UNIX V4.0. This makes it much more easy to operate the server and clients in a routed environment.

●Registry: Most of the Advanced Server for UNIX configuration is stored in a binary Registry file. The configuration can now be done via the Windows Registry Editor.

●SMB Signatures: SMB signing provides a message authentication by placing a digital security signature into each SMB, which is then verified by both the client and the server. For more information about SMB signatures take a look at Microsoft Knowledge Base.

●It is possible to select the language of builtin names (domain language) before the initialization of the Advanced Server for UNIX databases takes place (e.g. the local group “Administrators” becomes “Administratoren” and "builtin\guest" becomes a "vordefiniert\Gast").

●New command net computer to display or modify the list of the computer accounts in the domain database, net sid to translate Security Identifiers (SIDs) into account names and vice versa.

●German language message texts are integrated in the asxserver package and can be activated with a utility.
