GraphOn Corp. (OTCBB:GOJO), a leading worldwide developer of server-based application publishing and Web-enabling software solutions, today announced the immediate availability of GO-Global for UNIX version 2.2.6. GO-Global is a thin-client, server-based computing solution that extends the reach of existing UNIX and Linux software applications to any remote device, platform or operating system without the need for cumbersome, client-side X servers.
"With GO-Global for UNIX, enterprises can instantly and inexpensively Web-enable complex, feature-rich UNIX and Linux applications for cross-platform access from Windows-based clients and other thin clients over LANs, WANs, dial-up connections, or the Internet," said John Dilworth, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "With the powerful new capabilities incorporated into version 2.2.6, GO-Global for UNIX is now more flexible, efficient, and effective than ever."
The enhancements incorporated into GO-Global for UNIX 2.2.6 include:
- Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM). For improved user authentication and security, GO-Global now uses PAM for default authentication.
- New and Improved File Transfer. GO-Global's file transfer utility has been completely rewritten for improved throughput and efficiency. In addition, the host user interface has been eliminated, making the utility better suited to work with scripts for automated multiple file transfers, file translations, etc.
- New and Improved Print Utility. The GO-Global printing utility has been rewritten to improve overall performance.
- New Database Format. GO-Global now incorporates a new and improved XML-formatted database for published items, suspended sessions, etc. The new implementation allows the database to be shared among multiple machines.
- New Master Daemon. GO-Global's master daemon has been completely rewritten to improve performance and stability. The daemon is used to manage host connections.
- New Xgo Process. For improved efficiency, GO-Global's Xgo process (the server-resident X server) has been enhanced to use the XFree86 base code.
- Server-Rendered 3-D Graphics. The Xgo process now supports the open source, cross-platform GLX X extension which allows for the display of complex 3-D graphics from within a GO-Global session.
- Improved Clipboard Utility. The GO-Global clipboard utility has been changed significantly in order to improve performance and robustness.
- Enhanced X11 Client. The user interface for the X11 client has been enhanced to accommodate many of the special preferences previously available only in the Windows client. In addition, the X11 client now includes .kx files for foreign language keyboard support.
- Enhanced Windows Client. The Windows client has been enhanced for improved performance.
- Additional Server Platform Support. GO-Global for UNIX 2.2.6 now supports Sun Solaris x86_64; SUSE Linux 9 and 10 on x86, x86_64, and ia64; and HP-UX on ia64. This adds to the product's existing support of IBM AIX, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora Core Linux, Debian, as well as other UNIX and Linux servers.
Current GO-Global for UNIX customers with maintenance contracts can download the new version for free from GraphOn's FTP site. Customers without a maintenance contract should call GraphOn at 1.800.GRAPHON and select the Sales option when promoted.
