Introduction
Software
description
The IOLAN+ comes with the Chase CD. This CD contains
the latest ‘released’ firmware and the redirector software for
Unix systems called
ioland . The firmware is a backup copy
and generally not used. The
ioland software is used for
setting up printers and dial-out modems on Unix.
The IOLAN+ uses TFTP for downloading new firmware.
tftpd is included with Unix systems such as SCO, AIX and
HP-UX but disabled by default. Consult your Unix manual
on this subject. On Windows
®
, tftpd is not provided at this
time (see our
FTP site for a shareware tftpd program).
Note: Beta copies of the ‘next’ firmware release are usually
available on web sites (consult README files before
downloading).
Regarding
ioland , for printers/modems on Unix systems, the
source code
ioland.c is provided. There are also several
binaries of
ioland ready to run for various Unix systems (i.e.
SCO, AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, etc.). The source code can be
compiled on any Unix system (consult your Unix manual
on this subject).
Note: The most recent versions of these binaries should be
available on web sites.
