Subject: TCPware 4.0 is shipping Message-ID: <1993Nov2.110145.122@process.com> Date: 2 Nov 93 11:01:44 -0400 TCPware for OpenVMS version 4.0 is now being shipped to Process Software customers. TCPware 4.0 includes three new NetWare Services modules, FSS-OpenVMS for file sharing, TES-OpenVMS for terminal emulation, and NPS-OpenVMS for printing. All TCPware NetWare Services modules also include TCP/IP protocol support. Also included are enhancements to the TCP/IP Services portion of TCPware. RIP, NFS over TCP, PCNFSD v. 2, and SMTP to ALL-IN-1 mail support are just some of the new additions. As in the past, all TCPware modules are available separately or in combination. Customers who are in our TCPcare program will be receiving an update notification card in the mail within the next two weeks. The card helps us be sure we have your most recent mailing address and media preference. Please return the card, or contact your Process Software Sales Representative, to ensure that you'll receive TCPware 4.0 as soon as possible.

IBM claimes LU6.2 is the 'industry standard', so they, or a 3rd party, may have LU6.2 that'll run on your VMS computer; not a good solution by any means. -Dan Wing, Systems Administrator, University Hospital, Denver dwing@uh01.colorado.edu or wing@eisner.decus.org Vote to sacrifice Ratbert!

You can run anyone's TELNET client on top of TCPware; you can write your own FTP server, your own SMTP mailer (like MX or PMDF); you can write your own FTP client software, your own nameserver, etc. -- the only thing holding you back is possible compatibility problems with future versions of TCPware; if your TELNET client is properly written, you don't need to be concerned about that. I've crossposted this to the TCPware newsgroup to solicit their input to this question, as well.

Can anyone suggest a solution to a problem we're having ? The setup: A Vax running TCPware 3.1 is being used as a departmental firewall machine. Mail from outwith the department should be addressed to dept.strath.ac.uk, and will be delivered to the firewall machine. The firewall machine should then forward the message to the appropriate client machine. Obviously forwarding aliases will have to be set up on the firewall for each user on the client machines. Campus mail gateway, with links to outside world | vax firewall running TCPware / | \ Unix client 1 Unix client 2 VMS client 1 etc As multiple mail protocols are used on Janet, the national academic network, all off-site mail MUST go through the campus mail gateway, which decides which mail protocol to use. The firewall should not attempt to deliver off-site mail directly. The firewall machine should deliver mail addressed to the departmental machines unix1, unix2, vms1 etc directly to these machines. It should deliver all other mail to the campus mail gateway. If you set the "smtp_relay" parameter in TCPware to "unknown", the setup works, but the firewall attempts to deliver mail to off-site hosts directly, as these hosts have MX records. If smtp_relay is set to "all", all mail is delivered to the campus gateway, as required, but it is impossible to send mail to unix1, unix2 etc. What I want to do is set up routing thus: mail to unix1, unix2 etc is delivered directly. All other mail is passed via the campus gateway. With sendmail, this would be trivial to set up. How can I do it with TCPware ? Bruce. -- R.B.

I don't believe TCPware's SMTP agent can do this very cleanly; certainly not as cleanly as you'd like. You should look to purchase PMDF from Innosoft (sales@innosoft.com), or get the free "MX" package, which may provide the features you need, without requiring forwarding addresses and related messiness. -Dan Wing, Systems Administrator, University Hospital, Denver dwing@uh01.colorado.edu or wing@eisner.decus.org ================================================================================ Archive-Date: XXX, 29 Nov 1993 11:34:18 -0600 Subject: TCPWARE 4.0 and Netware connectivity Message-ID: <1993Nov29.113418.10@vaxl1.danavictor.com> From: wsmith@vaxl1.danavictor.com Date: 29 Nov 93 11:34:18 -0600 I have just updated TCPWARE to version 4.0.

If you wish to evaluate them , you can call your sales rep and ask for a temporary license which will allow you to evaluate these products.
