FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PC-Mac-Net FileShare v2.0 makes workgroup file sharing simple, secure and inexpensive ADELAIDE, AUSTRALIA -- August 19, 2002 -- Lava Software is now shipping PC-Mac-Net FileShare v2.0, a product which allows users to transfer files easily and securely between Macintoshes and Windows PCs over a Local Area Network (LAN) or the Internet. This new version includes streamlined support for workgroups containing from 2 to 50 computers, where any number of workgroups can be set up on a network. Settings can be easily transferred to all computers in a workgroup, making it simple to manage networks containing a large number of computers. Since Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is used for all network operations, PC-Mac-Net FileShare is the perfect solution for cross-platform file sharing on home, school and office networks. PC-Mac-Net FileShare offers additional benefits compared to file sharing built into Windows and MacOS: all file access is protected by strong 448-bit encryption and sharing passwords, ensuring that only authorized users have access to files. File transfers can be paused and resumed at any time, allowing even very large files to be reliably transferred. All shared files must be located in the 'Shared' folder on the desktop, preventing remote users from accessing other disks and folders. PC-Mac-Net FileShare works as seamlessly via the Internet as it does via LAN. This means that shared files stored on your online home computer can be safely accessed from your school or office. Friends can also conveniently transfer files of any size via the Internet, irrespective of what type of connection is used (eg. dialup modem, ADSL, cable, etc). PC-Mac-Net FileShare is fully Macintosh aware, correctly transferring flat files from Windows PCs and files with resource forks and custom types/creators from other Macintoshes. Files transferred from PC to Mac have their type/creator set automatically (based on the Windows PC file name extension) and files transferred from Mac to PC have their PC file name extension added automatically. The free demo software allows users to evaluate PC-Mac-Net FileShare for an unlimited time, though some functions are limited. The full version is priced at USD24.95 per license (one license is required for each computer), with volume and school discounts available. Purchasers get download access to the current version of the software for all platforms, as well as free upgrades for one year. Versions are available for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP and MacOS Classic (from System 9.0 upwards, with PPC processor). MacOS X version coming soon. About the Company Lava Software Pty.
