SAN FRANCISCO, CA-- 15 NOV 93

Santorini Consulting & Design, Inc. today shipped Server Tools(TM), a
comprehensive collection of applications which allows network
administrators to more effectively and efficiently manage their servers,
including AppleShare servers, mail servers and database servers, amongst
others.  With Server Tools, administrators can detect and avert problems,
improve security, manage disk space, account for disk usage, and perform
audit trails, on their servers.

Server Tools consists of the following nine applications:

** Disk Audit(TM) **
Monitors changes to server disks by keeping an audit trail of new folders
or files, deleted folders or files, changed files, or even renamed or moved
folders and files.  Also allows administrators to determine which folders
and files are responsible for increases and decreases in their servers'
disk space.

** Disk Cleaner(TM) **
Organizes server disks, reduces clutter, and eliminates problems by
searching for duplicate applications, duplicate documents, orphaned
aliases, files with bad dates, empty folders or files, and other similar
situations.  Disk Cleaner also builds lists of files which haven't been
modified for a given period of time, or conversely, builds lists of files
which have been modified since a given period of time.

** Disk Accountant(TM) **
Builds sortable disk usage reports of AppleShare servers by user and by
group, and optionally, bills these users and groups based on the amount of
disk usage.  Disk Accountant also builds reports of disk usage based on
document type and creator.  All reports can be exported to tab-delimited
text files for subsequent analysis by spreadsheet or other applications.

** Space Probe(TM) **
Continuously monitors servers for low disk space situations, and notifies
administrators accordingly through e-mail or pager.  Requires QuickMail for
mail support, and Notify! for paging support.  Future mail support will
include PowerTalk (AOCE).

** Crash Guard(TM) **
Keeps servers up-and-running, even if administrators aren't present.
CrashGuard automatically reboots Macs when they have experienced a System
Error, or when they have 'frozen', thus guaranteeing uninterrupted access
to servers.  Logs of all CrashGuard activities are maintained on the server
for subsequent analysis.

** ViewPoint(TM) **
Builds reports on which users can see which folders/volumes on an
AppleShare file server, or which folders/volumes can be seen by which
users, and the reason why.  ViewPoint helps administrators understand the
privileges they have set for their AppleShare servers, detects security
breaches, and averts calls from users who can't access the data they need
to.

** LoopHole(TM) **
Improves network security by allowing administrators to instantly see which
AppleShare servers (including Macs with file-sharing) have guest access
enabled, from the comfort of their own desk.

** Cache Register(TM) **
Allows administrators to monitor and tweak the cache performance of their
AppleShare Pro servers (WorkGroup Server 95s), ensuring they get the most
out of their investment.

** Remote Reboot **
Allows administrators to restart or shut down any Mac server, from the
comfort of their own desk.  Now, administrators can remotely install
startup software on any server, and restart it for the software to take
effect.   Or, they can shut down all of their servers at once from their
own desk before going home at the end of the day.


Server Tools is available now at an introductory price of $195.  Individual
server tools can be purchased for $95.  The price includes one year of free
technical support and upgrades.
