“Cybernet Systems Corporation today announced the industry’s
first suite of Linux-based thin server/Internet appliance software
to be available through retail channels. The NetMAX series
dramatically simplifies Linux server configuration and management,
while delivering the full power of Red Hat(TM) OS…and proven
applications such as the Apache web server, Sendmail, Samba and
others. A relatively unsophisticated user can set up a NetMAX
WebServer, FileServer or FireWall system in as little as 15 minutes
through a few simple mouse clicks. And as software-only solutions,
NetMAX thin servers give the user the flexibility to select
whatever hardware best meets their needs.”
“The true power of the NetMAX is in simplifying Linux,” noted
Greg Emery, vice president of marketing for Cybernet. “While Linux
is recognized as the ‘next great thing’ it’s notoriously difficult
to install and configure. We’ve eliminated those problems for the
first time, enabling mainstream computer users to easily configure
an inexpensive, rock-solid web, file or firewall server.”
