Networked Remote Control/Remote Access Now Available for Windows 95 Users

Farallon Timbuktu Pro for Networks

ALAMEDA, Calif., August 21, 1995 -- Farallon Computing, Inc., a leading
provider of innovative networking software and hardware, announced today
an upgrade of its popular Timbuktu Pro for Networks product that will make
it the first Windows 95 integrated solution for true network remote
access.

The Windows 95 compatible version of Timbuktu Pro for Networks 1.1 provides
all the functionality and performance of the currently shipping Timbuktu
Pro for Networks. Farallon has combined the leading-edge remote control
functionality of Timbuktu Pro with the state-of-the- art remote node
functionality of Windows 95, giving powerful remote access to any Windows
95 user. Timbuktu Pro for Networks 1.1 will take full advantage of the
remote node capabilities in Windows 95 by automatically integrating the
Windows 95 dial-up client in an easy, one-step installation.

"We're thrilled that Windows 95 is here," said Steve Bauman, general
manager of software products at Farallon. "Timbuktu Pro is the natural
companion to Windows 95, whether you're a new user or upgrading from
Windows 3.1."

Compatible with Windows 3.1 and 3.11 as well as Windows 95, Timbuktu Pro
for Networks 1.1 is the ideal tool for migrating from any currently
shipping version of Windows to Windows 95. With Timbuktu Pro for Networks
1.1 installed, users can easily access remote machines, transfer files,
and perform other activities across the network, regardless of whether
they or their peers have already upgraded to Windows 95. This transparent
access between different Windows platforms allows efficient training of
new Windows 95 users, easing migration headaches and getting new Windows
95 "up and running" quickly.

Timbuktu Pro for Networks version 1.1 includes integrated remote node
capabilities (PPP) which will completely interoperate with the Windows 95
Plus! dial-up server, providing secure dial-up access to the network.
Additionally, Timbuktu Pro for Networks version 1.1 is fully compatible
with industry-standard PPP remote access servers such as Microsoft NT,
Shiva LanRover, 3Com AccessBuilder, and others.

Windows 95 compatibility for Timbuktu Pro for Networks enhances the
cross-platform capabilities of the Timbuktu family of products from
Farallon, which already includes Windows 3.x and MacOS versions.
