JLAN Server 3.3 Released
------------------------

JLAN Server is a high performance Java based file server supporting
Windows file sharing (SMB/CIFS), NFS and FTP protocols.

Write your own virtual filesystems with the core server handling all
protocol exchanges with the client.

Includes virtual filesystems that share the local filesystem using the
java.io.File class and a JDBC based filesystem that stores files within
a database.

Authentication, virtual hosting, access control, quota management and
many other components can be replaced or modified using an effecient
object oriented design.

The Windows networking (SMB/CIFS) server component supports advanced
features such as long file names, Unicode, passthru authentication, NT
SMB dialect requests, virtual hosting, dynamic shares, and NTFS streams.

Version 3.3 adds the following new features:-

o Access Control Manager/Rules
Per share and global access control allows rules to be set that control
access to each shared filesystem. Available access control rules can
allow read, write or no access depending upon username, domain name,
protocol or TCP/IP address.

The default access control manager may be replaced with your own
implementation, and/or the default set of access control rules can be
changed or new rules added.

o Quota Manager
Quota management may be enabled on a per share basis. The QuotaManager
interface is designed to allow per user or per share level quotas.

There is a reference QuotaManager implementation that works with the
JDBCDiskDriver filesystem that implements share level quotas.

o WINS Support
The NetBIOS name server can register names with a WINS server, or use
network broadcasts as in previous versions.

o NFS Changes
The NFS server now only supports v3 of the NFS protocol.

All pre/post operation attributes and weak cache consistency fields are
filled in for all requests. ReadDir and ReadDirPlus have been changed to
work with Solaris (cookies are now 32bit).

There are now NFSSrvSession objects for UDP and TCP connections that are
passed to DiskInterface methods.

The mount server now responds to showmount export list and active mount
requests (showmount -e/-a).

Various data structures that were global are now per share or per
session.

A fully working demo version of the server is available from the
Starlasoft web site at http://www.starlasoft.com.

A developer licence that includes the full source code, 12 months of
email support and 12 months of code updates is available. Royalty free
commercial licence also available.
