BOCA RATON, Fla.-- CrossTec Corporation (www.CrossTecCorp.com) announced the release of NetOp for OS/2 v6.5. The new version matches much of the look and functionality of the award-winning NetOp Remote Control for Windows-based computers, including advanced security and file transfer options. Developed by Copenhagen, Denmark based Danware Data A/S, NetOp for OS/2 provides users with fast, secure and stable cross platform remote control, file transfer, and chat capabilities with other OS/2 users as well as any Windows or network DOS NetOp module.

Besides an updated user Interface, designed to look more like the NetOp for Windows Host screens, NetOp for OS/2 includes a new File Manager. According to Soren Andersen, VP of Sales and Marketing with Danware, “The NetOp Remote Control File Manager has won numerous awards for speed and features.  We took most of that functionality and added it into the new OS/2 version so our corporate customers could easily synchronize files with remote servers and locations.”  The new OS/2 File Manager includes a dual window layout for easy ‘Drag and Drop’ file selection and transfer, along with a progress meter, delta file transfer, history list and crash recovery.

NetOp for OS/2 also includes TCP support for connecting to remote PCs over the TCP/IP device protocol.  By using this dynamic TCP NetOp protocol instead of NetOp’s default UDP setting, users are able to connect directly to a NetOp Host, which adds speed and may enable users to more easily connect through firewalls.  Also added to NetOp for OS/2 is the ability for remote users to send a request help message via network or modem dial-up. NetOp customers rely on the SOS feature so users can easily send a NetOp Instant Message to support providers. Once a technician receives a message, they can easily take control of the troubled user with a click of their mouse, saving the organization valuable time.

Besides enhancements to the NetOp for OS/2 Guest and Host modules, the NetOp for OS/2 Gateway Server and Access Security Server products have been updated as well. The OS/2 Gateway now permits out-going NetOp calls from NetOp Windows users. The NetOp Gateway acts as a secure inbound and outbound software router and firewall for NetOp traffic. The OS/2 Gateway now also enables a request help message from remote NetOp Host to call a NetOp Help Provider on an internal Network.  The NetOp Access Security Server, which provides centralized security and management of NetOp Remote Control users, now makes it possible to define a default OS/2 Host group. NetOp can also establish a session with a Windows Host using Windows Security Management authentication.

Developed by Danware Data A/S as a network support tool in 1987, NetOp continues to win awards for its speed, security and stability. NetOp for OS/2 is available in combined guest/host packages starting at $295. Reseller and enterprise site-license pricing is also available. NetOp products, along with personalized pre and post sale support are available in North America from CrossTec or authorized NetOp resellers.
