| Data and File
Management |
| The BOSaNOVA TCP/IP provides advanced data and file
management features and tools for AS/400 connectivity: |
| Data Transfer
Function (DTF) |
| DTF is a 32-bit Windows utility for transferring data in
either direction between a PC and an AS/400. The DTF Wizard is used to
build a list of profiles that can be automatically transferred. The DTF
Scheduler enables transferring data according to a predetermined time and/
or based on a predefined screen trigger that initiates the transfer. The
DTF Interface is used to create and view the profiles and profile lists,
change parameters and profile lists, and run data transfers interactively. |
| Native AS/400
File Transfer |
|
The native AS/400 FTP client is designed specifically
for use with the AS/400 and supports all the AS/400 naming conventions and
file systems. Using the FTP client, users can transfer and receive data to
and from the folders area, and from the AS/400 libraries.

|
| Host Explorer |
The Host explorer, modeled on the Windows Explorer,
enables users to view the AS/400 as if it were another PC on the network.
It provides access to all connected AS/400s, displaying libraries and/or
files as if they were folders on another (PC) network drive. Host Explorer
functions include:
- drag-and-drop copying of folders or files
- sending print jobs directly from a PC to AS/400 printer queues
- a full, customizable toolbar (with or without text labels)
- adding printer

| BOSaNOVA IFS |
BOSaNOVA IFS (Integrated File System) is a Windows
95/98/Me utility that enables you to work with AS/400 folders as if they
were PC folders. With BOSaNOVA IFS you can:
- use an AS/400 as a file server for your PC
- assign a root folder on an AS/400 to an available drive on your PC
- use IFS in Windows Me, Windows 98, Windows 95 and DOS applications
- copy folders and files to and from your PC and an AS/400
