MetaInfo Teams with Global Internet to Provide Secure Firewall for
Microsoft Windows NT

MetaInfo's DNS for NT and Sendmail Technologies Integrated In Centri
Firewall

Seattle, Wash., April 24, 1996 -- MetaInfo, Inc., today announced they have
been chosen to provide the key e-mail and domain name service (DNS) server
components for Global Internet's Centri Firewall, the only firewall for
the Microsoft Windows NT operating system based on the industry-standard
Trusted Information Systems (TIS) Gauntlet Internet Firewall technology.

The agreement, completed mid-April, means that technologies from MetaInfo's
Internet connectivity products, Sendmail with POP3 for Windows NT and DNS
for Windows NT, will be incorporated into the Centri Firewall, providing
customers with a total Internet gateway solution.

"There's clearly a need for Internet security solutions on the Microsoft
Windows NT platform," said Jared Vogt, President of MetaInfo, Inc., "and
we're pleased that Global Internet released an NT-based firewall that
incorporated our technologies. They've conducted extensive testing to
verify that Centri Firewall will be the most advanced and secure solution
on the market, and we're proud to be a part of it."

MetaInfo's DNS server and sendmail router add integral functionality to
Centri Firewall. Essentially, they act as gatekeepers for e- mail and DNS
service requests, mediating communications between the "inside" and
"outside" of the firewall. By incorporating MetaInfo's software into the
Centri Firewall, Global Internet is saving customers the added time and
expense required to configure an SMTP gateway on the firewall, "To provide
the best firewall solution for Microsoft Windows NT, you have to have the
best components," said Mark Kriss, Executive Vice President of Marketing
and Sales at Global Internet. "It's essential that firewalls have superior
functionality in their DNS server and sendmail router. We've rigorously
tested all available solutions and MetaInfo's are the most secure and
consistent in execution. We have a high degree of confidence in the
MetaInfo products."
