============
1.1 What is Report-Generator?
Report-Generator was designed to retrieve detailed configuration information
from Novell file servers. It retrieves the information available with SYSCON,
PCONSOLE, DSPACE, FCONSOLE and more. We use it to generate configuration
reports for our customers.
Report-Generator is also usefull to document changes in the server configuration
e.g. at a weekly basis.
1.2 Features
- Generate reports for Novell 2.x / 3.x / and (with limitations) 4.x servers
- Server config: name/version/*.ncf files/system login script/...
- Accounting config: charge rates
- User/Group: account restrictions/time restrictions/trustee assignments/...
- Queue: queue directory/users/servers/operators
- Print Server: printer configuration/version/status/type/...
- Volume: Volume Info/Directory tree with dspace information
- Novell like menu system
- Batch processing
1.3 Requirements
- NetWare 2.x or higher
1.4 Problems/Suggestions
You have problems using Report Generator? You are missing a bit of infor-
mation which is not currently retrieved by Report Generator? Feel free to
contact me via E-Mail (Compuserve: Thomas Botta [100020,1721]).
2. Shareware:
=============
2.1 Definition of Shareware:
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.
If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to re-
gister. Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration
while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With registra-
tion, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the software
to an updated program with printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like commercial
authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there
are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example,
some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may
copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you
can try before you buy. And because the overhead is low, prices are low also.
Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.
2.2 DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of Report Generator must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
"Report Generator is supplied as is. The author disclaims all warranties,
expressed or implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of
merchantability and of fitness for any purpose. The author assumes no
liability for damages, direct or consequential, which may result from the
use of Report Generator".
Report Generator is a 'shareware program' and is provided at no charge to the
user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but please do not
give it away altered or as part of another system. If you find this program
usefull and wish to use it after you have run it 5 times on your server, you
must make a registration payment of $89 which license Report Generator to use
it on one server. Report Generator is also available in an unlimitted version
for $235.
The $89 registration fee will license one copy for use on one server. You
must register Report Generator for each server you wish to use it for. If you
have more than 2 servers the unlimitted version ($235 registration fee) is
recommended. It license you to use one copy with any number of file servers.
To register please send me your company name as well as the serial number of
your file server. Registration is easy with compuserve: Simply enter "GO SWREG"
and search for keyword "TGB" now select the product you want to register.
Anyone distributing Report Generator for any kind of renumeration must first
contact Thomas Botta at the address below for authorization.
You are encouraged to pass a copy of Report Generator along to your friends
for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they find
that they can use it.
