Today we are pleased to announce that we have purchased eComStation(tm) v1.2 for use in our new server project. (http://www.os2ecs.org/newserver.html )
This new server will host a new hobbes software repository service. The service will provide mirroring of the existing hobbes (hobbes.nmsu.edu) and be positioned to be available if the existing hobbes should disappear. This strategy ensures that this important resource is protected and that our "eggs are not in one basket".
Our decision to use eComStation(tm) as our base server solution is based on the reliability and security of the platform. eComStation(tm) gives us a scaleable platform that is flexible and provides excellent management abilities. At the OS2eCS Organization we are committed to utilizing OS/2 Technologies as they provide powerful solutions for our information technology needs.
We believe eComStation(tm) is an excellent choice for a server operating platform. The TCP/IP stack is BSD v4.4 compliant offering a built-in fire wall with IPSEC. The base OS/2 kernel with its highly efficient multitasking and multithreading, provides a secure-high performance base to run Internet Services. The upcoming release of eComStation(tm) v2.0 will offer an advanced configuration utility to unleash the power of the built-in fire wall. With Serenity Systems International committed to continual enhancements and support, eComStation(tm) is an excellent choice! OpenSSH/2 and Security/2 (http://os2.kiev.ua/en/sses.php)
combined with eComStation(tm) allow us to deploy a multi-user system, allowing our supporting members to administer the new services with ease.
The OS2eCS Organization is a nonprofit organization chartered to support and advocate OS/2(TM) and eComStation(tm)(TM) operating platforms using all resources at our disposal. The OS2eCS Organization is a nonaligned independent organization not affiliated with IBM or Serenity Systems International.
Our organization was created to provide support services and resources to help users effectively utilize IBM's OS/2(tm) and Serenity System's eComStation(tm) operating platform. All are invited to join us! OS/2 and eComStation(tm) are the premier choice for desktop and server systems on the x86 platform, offering unmatched performance and power!
eComStation(tm) is the clear choice for today's business users who demand productivity, ease of use, power and want to maximize their IT investments.
