InterAccess	Top
InterAccess enhances the HP NonStop™ print spooler so it can communicate directly with any TCP/IP LAN-based HP LaserJet printer equipped with an HP JetDirect or compatible adapter card. InterAccess also supports printers connected to network print servers and devices that support the LPD protocol. InterAccess allows HP networks to become UNIX LPR/LPD (RFC 1179) compliant. InterAccess consists of the following software components: INTRX -- provides access to HP JetDirect and a variety of LPD servers. INTRX generates EMS events containing job accounting information, which is processed by Network Peripheral Manager (NPM) to generate printer management reports. INTRXLPD -- provides remote access to HP NonStop™ Kernel spoolers using the strict RFC 1179 LPD protocol. INTRXLPD is also compatible with most LPR clients. NPM -- provides for configuration, control, management, and accounting of network-based printers. BOOTPD (Bootstrap Protocol Daemon) -- allows network printers and print interfaces to be centrally configured and dynamically managed. Coupled with NPM, BOOTPD provides very easy management of these devices. SYSLOG -- provides a bridge between the UNIX system syslog facility and the HP NonStop™ Kernel EMS. Syslog-compatible, non-SNMP devices can now log messages that will be visible to the EMS log. APLSPOOL -- allows Apple Macintosh workstations and AppleTalk networks to print to the NonStop™ Kernel spooler. Self-configuring, it automatically detects changes in the spooler configuration and reflects them to the workstation. With InterAccess, you can take full advantage of all the printing functionality, flexibility, and reliability available in today's open networking environments.

File Compression and Reorganization Utilities PRESS consists of three independent utilities: CPRESS, EPRESS, and XPRESS.  CPRESS is a file compression / expansion utility for any ENSCRIBE file. ALL ENSCRIBE file attributes are retained in the compressed files, including: file ownership, security, modification times, key parameters, and alternate key parameters. This utility is particularly useful for compressing infreqently used files or files to be archived, in order to conserve space on the recording medium (e.g., tape, disc). It is also useful for distributing large files across a network to reduce transmission times. Compression ratios as 10:1 (90%) can be achieved using CPRESS. EPRESS is a compression utility for EDIT files. The compressed file remains compatible with the EDIT format. EPRESS removes unallocated and deallocatable extents as well as dead space from EDIT files. Extents are reassigned so that most EDIT files fit into a single, full extent with one or no unallocated pages. EPRESS retains file ownership, security, and (optionally) modification date. It may be used to compress an EDIT file without changing the "last modified" timestamp. XPRESS is an extent reorganization tool. Highly fragmented files can be reorganized with more efficient extent allocation. Files with large numbers of unallocated pages in primary extents can be reorganized with smaller extent sizes. XPRESS retains all ENSCRIBE file attributes.
