GraphOn Releases Version 2.2.6 of GO-Global for UNIX
more flexible, efficient, and effective than ever
New enhancements increase the performance, efficiency, and reliability of server-centric UNIX and Linux application access solution
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.
