SSR Client Server™:
Product Overview:
Applied
Software Inc. (ASI) SSR Server™
products are full-featured
file transfer applications
supporting the MVS and OS/390
TSO, CICS and native VTAM platforms.
SSR Server™ supports host connections
using SNA and TCP/IP. Emulators
supported include 3270, TN3270
and TN3270E.
Files
may be transferred to and from
DOS, Windows 3.x, Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP,
OS/2 and virtually any platform
including UNIX that supports
the IND$FILE protocol. SSR
Server™ can be used as a superset
replacement for the unsupported
IBM IND$FILE products and is
totally transparent to the
end-user. SSR Server™ supports
both the IND$FILE protocol
and the High-Speed Transfer
(HST) proprietary protocol.
HST transfers files at speeds
up to 1+ megabytes per second
to and from Windows NT.

GUI and script facility to
fully utilize the enhanced
features of the SSR Server™
software. SSR Client™ supports
the DOS, Windows 3.x, Windows
9x/NT/2000/XP and WIN-OS/2

been designed to work seamlessly
with virtually all 3270, TN3270
and TN3270E emulators.
