NetMAX Internet Appliance Server Software installs quickly and easily in as little as 15 minutes.


The browser-based interface enables users to run Linux without previous Unix experience. NetMAX Internet Appliance Software is designed to simplify complex network administration tasks. Running your server is as easy as browsing the web - just point and click.


NetMAX FileServer includes and installs a Linux operating system based on the Red Hat^TM distribution, the Samba and Netatalk file/print sharing software, and backup software. All of the services are pre-configured and integrated into the FileServer product.


NetMAX provides software-only solutions for computers using the Intel®-based architecture, giving you the flexibility to choose or upgrade to the most appropriate type of hardware to run your server.


Everyone on your network can share files and printers, regardless of which operating system they run. Total hardware costs are lowered because the same printer can be shared by multiple users. The NetMAX FileServer also provides backup services to Windows, Macintosh and Unix clients.


NetMAX FileServer provides a dedicated server for sharing files. Access is controlled at a single point. User file access is limited to a single machine. This increases security and ensures that you have access to the files you need when you need them.


Multiple hard drives can be added to the NetMAX FileServer to increase shared file space and allow you to use the built-in disk redundancy features. Disk redundancy, either through mirroring or software RAID 5, ensures that a single hard disk failure will not cause you to lose any of your data.


NetMAX FileServer provides the ability to perform full backups (save everything) or differential backups (save only what changed). This saves time and storage space.


NetMAX FileServer can backup data stored locally as well as data stored on the clients on your network. The backups can be done immediately, or scheduled to occur sometime in the future. You can maximize your network resources by backing up your clients when network usage is low.


Data saved to a backup tape can be restored to the NetMAX FileServer or any client computer on your network, providing you with the greatest flexibility in data recovery.


Experienced Linux users can always access the command line. The command line option allows you to add new software and applications to your system.
