Los Altos Technologies Ships the First complete UNIX Media Erasure
Application conforming to Government and Commercial Standards
LOS ALTOS, CA, August 11, 1992 --- Los Altos Technologies begins
shipping UniShred today, a complete suite of powerful media erasure
applications. UniShred irrevocably deletes one or more files and
securely obliterates the data contained in the files. Once deleted,
the files can not be retrieved in any form. UniShred may be used on
disks, tapes, floppies and all writeable media as well as across
networks. For extra safety, the programs include a fail-safe protocol
to confirm deletion instructions.
UniShred is the first UNIX software to conform to the strictest
government and commercial standards. The media erasure and
declassification standards to which UniShred currently conforms to
include the Department of Defense (DOD 5200.28-STD), National Security
Agency, National Computer Security Center (NCSC-TG-025 and CSC-
STD-005-85) as well as Air Force, Navy and Army guidelines.
The software erases data forever. It should be used at any site
concerned about data security," says Ben Dubin, Chief Technologist.
Dubin also indicates that the software is an easy to use, direct
replacement for the UNIX utility rm. UniShred is a superset of the
standard rm UNIX command with significant functionality enhancements
such as full device erasure."
UniShred is priced at $229 per license and is available immediately, as
are evaluation licenses. UniShred is available for UNIX systems
including SCO, SUN, HP and Addamax. The programs are available on 1/4"
cartridge, 1/2" magnetic tape, 3.5" diskettes or 8-mm tape.
Headquartered in Los Altos, California, Los Altos Technologies has been
the leader of affordable UNIX utility software since 1990. As the most
experienced developer of low-cost UNIX utility software, the company
has over 500 customers. Los Altos Technologies markets its products
both directly and through selected resellers including UNIX Central,
Qualix Group and DUX Software.
UniShred is a trademark of Los Altos Technologies, Inc.

SUNBURST UNVEILS HIGH RESOLUTION
LCD SCREEN PROJECTION SYSTEMS FOR UNIX
San Diego, CA, August 28, 1992 -- Sunburst Computers announced today
the addition of the only commercially available high-resolution LCD
panel to its Sunburst Presentation Series for SPARC workstations. The
new model, which features a Super VGA LCD display, brings to the
workstation market the resolution users are requesting to project their
full screen SPARCstation applications on overhead screens or walls.
With the fast growth of the Sun market, companies require portable Unix
presentation systems for sales demonstrations, marketing seminars,
trade shows, in-house and off-site training, and more. Sunburst
addresses this market by providing a complete line of portable,
easy-to-use presentation products for SPARCstations, known as the
Sunburst Presentation SeriesTM. These Sunburst products provide users
with powerful, light-weight, and portable systems that make
SPARCstation demonstrations and presentations easy and efficient for
audiences of any size.
"We're excited to add a high-resolution LCD projection system to our
Sunburst Presentation Series," said Daniel Vahalla, president of
Sunburst Computers. "SPARCstation users who require high resolution
for their full screen applications have been waiting for the portable
LCD technology to increase to SVGA resolution. You can let them know
that the wait is over, these users now have an integrated high
resolution LCD panel for the SPARCstation from Sunburst."
The new Sunburst SPARC PresenterTM SVGA forms part of The SPARC
Presenter product line. Features of the new SVGA model include:
o A state-of-the-art 1024x768 resolution, 24,389 color
projection panel with remote control for image adjustment
o Air Mouse interactive pointer with Sunburst software for X
Window System application support under SunOS
o All necessary video hardware and cables for connection to
SPARCstations
o Soft carrying case
The Sunburst Air Mouse enables users to interact directly with the
projected image. The Air Mouse enhances a desktop mouse allowing users
to make menu selections, push buttons, and move windows directly on the
projected image. With the Air Mouse, presenters maintain control over
their audiences and enhance communication by driving presentations from
the projected image.
The SPARC Presenter SVGA model is available immediately from Sunburst
Computers for the price of $9,995. The SPARC Presenter is also
available bundled with BriteLite portable SPARCstations starting at
$17,695 (portable SPARCstation BRTL-IPC-M model). For more
information, contact the Sunburst sales department at (619) 633-4310
(or send e-mail to sales@sunburst.com).
Sunburst Computers is a privately held integrator of Unix
technologies. The company offers a broad range of presentation
products to the Unix market with its Sunburst Presentation SeriesTM.
Presentation Series products enable users to easily transport and
demonstrate SPARCstation software and hardware products to audiences of
any size. Sunburst also provides value-added products for PC/Macintosh

*********************************************************************
*********************************************************************
AIM Technology (Santa Clara, CA) is introducing a free, promotional
NFS response time utility to network and system administrators. This
easy-to-use command line utility runs on SPARC workstations running
the Network Interface Tap (NIT) and SunOS 4.1.1 or higher. NOTE: The
NFS servers that the utility will monitor DO NOT have to run SunOS.
The utility outputs the following data for each server receiving NFS
requests via the local network:
* Percentage of NFS requests that had response times exceeding a
definable threshold in milliseconds
* Average response time for each server (in milliseconds)
* Maximum response time for each server (in milliseconds)
* NFS operations per second for each server on the monitored subnet
This free utility is generating significant interest from the
networking community. The product includes a white paper that discusses
important NFS performance issues. A COPY OF THE SOFTWARE AND WHITE
PAPER CAN BE OBTAINED BY COMPLETING AND RETURNING THE REQUEST FORM
BELOW.

*********************************************************************
AIM's primary performance management software is SharpShooter, a
Client/Server Performance Monitor for TCP/IP networks. Qualified
network and system administrators can trial a fully functional copy
of SharpShooter for 30 days to evaluate their client/server
performance problems in detail.
SHARPSHOOTER -
QUICKLY IDENTIFIES PROBLEM USERS
Monitor NFS traffic by: server, file system, client.
Control from one location.
Identify: unexpected usage, resource misuse, load imbalances.
Free up or add NFS bandwidth on critical servers.
Tune NFS and see results.
ACCURATELY PINPOINTS BUSY APPLICATIONS
View NFS, X Windows, NIS, RPC, and others by: server, interface,
client.
Define services of interest.
Balance load across interfaces, servers.
EFFICIENTLY MANAGES GIGABYTES OF DISK STORAGE
Analyze disk storage use by: server, file system.
Analyze file aging by: server, file system, user, group.
Perform capacity planning.
Formulate file archival, migration, removal strategy.
Free up needed disk space.
The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model of network
management separates administration into five functional areas:
configuration, fault, performance, accounting, and security management.
Each functional area of the model often requires a different type of
tool.
Network managers and protocol analyzers handle the OSI areas of
configuration management and fault isolation, respectively. Network
managers provide a high level view of your network. Protocol analyzers
are useful for debugging broken networks. However, these tools don't
give you useful, long-term performance information about who is using
network resources and in what amounts.
Performance management has only recently been addressed by tools
from companies such as AIM. SharpShooter aids in managing all the
essential aspects of client/server performance and accounts for
utilization of disk file systems on all file servers. SharpShooter
lets you understand your client/server performance and gives you the
information you need to manage your network efficiently and
effectively.
*********************************************************************
*********************************************************************
* *
* SHARPSHOOTER FEATURES *
* *
*********************************************************************
*********************************************************************
SharpShooter uses distributed File Server Agents to collect server
performance data and displays this information on graphical monitors
and analyzers. The following paragraphs describe how these displays
can help you identify and resolve performance problems.
NFS THROUGHPUT MONITORS PINPOINT BOTTLENECKS
--------------------------------------------
Server throughput can be limited by I/O bottlenecks, slow disk accesses,
and insufficient processing power. Furthermore, the actual count of
NFS operations per second is constrained by the mix of asynchronous (read)
and synchronous (write) operations, since synchronous calls use
significantly more resources. SharpShooter uses an advanced calibration
method to measure the NFS potential of each server. These figures are
displayed in the NFS Throughput Monitors. Actual read and write
throughputs are graphed in a stacked strip chart format as a fraction of
potential throughput. This display gives you a quick, accurate view of
throughput usage for all servers and identifies the source of the
traffic.
NETWORK SERVICES MONITORS
MEASURE THE EFFECTS OF DISTRUBITED APPLICATIONS
-----------------------------------------------
SharpShooter allows you to monitor other network services and traffic in
addition to NFS, and break down the traffic by interface. SharpShooter
tracks throughput for services including X Windows, Telnet, E-mail,
Yellow Pages, and others, and identifies who created the traffic.
SharpShooter allows you to define your own network service
categories for specialized distributed applications. With SharpShooter
installed on your servers, you can view the load on each interface,
affording you an opportunity to balance subnet traffic.
DISK STORAGE MONITORS
ACCOUNT FOR USE DOWN TO THE USER LEVEL
--------------------------------------
SharpShooter measures the available storage capacity on each of your
servers. This information is displayed in the Disk Storage Monitors. This
monitor uses strip charts to display disk storage as a fraction of the
total available space on the server's disks. SharpShooter also includes a
disk usage report that shows the growth in user/group disk utilization.
FILE AGING ANALYZERS IDENTIFY OLD AND/OR UNUSED FILES
-----------------------------------------------------
System performance and integrity can be sacrificed as your disks become
full. You may need to delete or archive old, unused files. The File Aging
Analyzers, a subset of the Disk Storage Monitor, display file aging data.
This data uncovers file systems with old files and identifies who owns
them. SharpShooter includes reports with file aging statistics for
all users and groups across the entire network.
