Simply connect a printer you wish to make available to your network to the NetWinder's parallel port to print from any Windows computer on which you have installed the correct driver. Choose Print server from the Services Menu, select a driver for your printer, and you can add a PostScript-compatible printer queue hosted by the NetWinder. You can also print from non-Windows workstations via the UNIX lpr command and the Apple Chooser. A personal web directory is created each time a user is added. Users can also create entire web sites using desktop publishing tools and upload these to the NetWinder using FTP or one of the file sharing services supported.
Users can obtain graphical web traffic reports of their virtual hosts.
The InfoPlace Document Manager provides sophisticated document indexing and categorization and a powerful search engine one typically expects from enterprise class Intranet servers. In addition to supporting Internet email via SMTP, POP3, and IMAP, the NetWinder provides users with powerful mail forwarding and filtering features. Users can create vacation responses with customized responses. They can also choose to silently discard or selectively forward received mail based on the contents of any mail header or the message body. These features can be used to process spam and to determine if appropriate use policies are being violated.
