SUNSOFT ANNOUNCES NEW SOLARIS INTERNET SERVER

Provides Easy, Secure Internet Access for Millions of NetWare, Windows and
UNIX Users

NETWORLD+INTEROP, LAS VEGAS, Nev., Calif. -- April 2, 1996 --SunSoft, Inc.,
the internet software company today announced its new Solaris Internet
Server, an integrated Internet software solution that delivers secure and
easy access to the Internet for the millions of Novell NetWare networks,
Microsoft Windows and UNIX-based workgroups. It is based on SunSoft's
Solaris 2.5, the most scalable, reliable and secure enterprise and
Internet/intranet operating environment for SPARC and Intel platforms.

Designed for network managers, IT professionals and Internet Service
Providers (ISPs), the Solaris Internet Server provides easy, economical
access to the Internet and other TCP/IP-based services and networks for
the 50 million NetWare users without requiring them to change existing
networks or servers. By including SunSoft's SolarNet WebScout/NW in
Solaris Internet Server, the cost and time associated with purchasing and
installing a separate TCP/IP stack on every desktop is eliminated. In
addition, all setup, configuration, and administration is performed via
easy-to-use, point-and-click Web browser-based user interface to simplify
deployment of Internet and intranet Web servers.

"We saw an opportunity to expand the Internet market with our Solaris
Internet Server to include the millions of business users who are
demanding secure, reliable and scalable Internet access," said Steve
MacKay, vice president and general manager of SunSoft's Solaris Product
Group. "WebScout/NW is included because our customers with NetWare
networks requested easier integration to the Internet and intranet to save
installation and support time and money."

Unlike Microsoft's Windows NT, Solaris is scalable without performance
degradation to meet a company's growing number of users and Internet
traffic. Solaris is optimized to run on systems ranging from
single-processor desktops to 64-processor superservers. In addition,
Solaris supports NetWare Directory Services for seamless integration with
NetWare networks and provides additional security so only selected
services are made available to internal users on the LAN and external
users from the Internet.

The Solaris Internet Server is a member of the SunSoft Solaris Server
Suite, a comprehensive set of solution packages for the Solaris operating
environment enabling companies to distribute mission critical
applications, centrally manage their PC LAN user environment, and access
the Internet and intranet. The Solaris Server Suite also includes:

* Solaris Application Server - the foundation for PC workgroup
client/server and database applications

* Solaris PC Administration Server - combines Solaris Application Server
with PC-Admin Lan management utilities for managing large numbers of PCs
from anywhere on the network

* Solaris Base Server - high performance in a small footprint with SCO
compatibility

"With Solaris Internet Server we spend less time worrying about system
management and maintenance and more time growing our business by focusing
on value-add activities like customer service and sales," said Jake Van
Vleet, managing partner at Jet Link Systems, Inc., one of the
fastest-growing ISPs in southern California. "Initially I wanted to use
NT, but I realized we needed the reliability and flexibility that Solaris
offered. The easiest way to lose customers in the Internet business is to
have your system go down."
