ATTACHMATE SHIPS NEW PENTIUM "PLUG AND PLAY" HARDWARE PLATFORM FOR REMOTE
LAN ACCESS

RLN Access Server Provides Optimized Application Performance for Remote
Users

ATLANTA (September 27, 1995) -- Attachmate Corporation today announced a
new Pentium-based server, pre-installed with the award winning Remote LAN
Node 4.0 software. The new RLN Access Server allows systems administrators
to quickly configure remote access for Ethernet or token-ring networks
over any medium they choose- -including modems, cellular, ISDN, X.25 and
switched 56Kbps.

The RLN Access Server 4.0 utilizes a 75 MHz Pentium processor based system
from Dell Computer Corporation, and is delivered fully configured by
Attachmate. This easy to install "plug and play" solution allows remote
users to run applications, access the host, send or receive e-mail
messages, and perform tasks as if they were cabled to the LAN. The
flexible RLN Access Server also functions as a modem pool server
permitting LAN-attached users to dial out to popular public information
services.

"We're very excited about the new RLN Access Server," said Pete Nicoletti
with Data Transit International, a reseller participating in the RLN
Remote Access Medallion Program (RAMP). "RLN is becoming a very popular
remote LAN access solution with our customers. The new plug-and-play
server will continue to provide the flexibility our customers require,
while eliminating most of the configuration work necessary with software
based solutions" added Pete.

"We're taking a Best-of-Breed approach to plug-and-play remote access
servers by combining the best available hardware platform with the finest
remote access software," said Matt Highsmith, Attachmate's vice president
world wide corporate marketing. "By bringing these two industry leading
products together Attachmate is providing an optimal one step remote
access solution to the customer."

The RLN Access Server 4.0 supports all the unique RLN 4.0 features right
out of the box. These include:

* Native ISDN Support
* Enhanced NetWare Client Install
* SNMP management support and a Windows-based manager included
* Scaleable up to 32 simultaneous connections per RLN Server, and
  multiple servers function as a single "mega server."
* RLN's Domain Management provides a unique combination of
  load-balancing flexibility and fault tolerant redundancy.
* Multiple levels of security including TACACS support for external
  security systems.

The RLN Access Server integrates tightly with the complete RLN suite of
products including RLN Application Server. The RLN Application Server
enhances the performance of data-intensive applications for remote DOS,
Windows and OS/2 users.

When combined, the RLN Access Server and RLN Application Server deliver
seamless integrated remote node and multi-user application server
technologies, resulting in optimized remote performance for client/server,
host- and LAN-based applications.

"Attachmate is continuing to solidify our leadership position in the remote
access market by rounding out our product line and offering the choice of
server software or a pre-installed 'plug and play' configuration," said
Paul Rodwick, executive vice president of products.

The RLN Access Server allows the customer to purchase a complete Remote
Access solution with one purchase order. RLN Access Server is available in
configurations of 4, 8, 16, 24 or 32 port systems and can be ordered today
with retail pricing ranging from $4,575.00 for a 4-port system to
$17,935.00 for a 32-port system.

The RLN suite is the vital "anywhere" component of Attachmate's total
enterprise connectivity solutions providing access to any application, on
any host or any LAN, from "anywhere."
