NetLoad - Version 3.2e - Release 29th August 1996 ------------------------------------------------- A FILE TRANSFER UTILITY DESIGNED TO GIVE UNPARALLELED EASE OF USE TO WEB DEVELOPERS UPDATING WEB SITES Internet: http://www.aerosoft.com.au/netLoad email: andrew@aerosoft.com.au Contact: Andrew McLean (developer) Thank you for downloading the evaluation copy of NetLoad. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ THE DETAILS ON THE DOWNLOAD PAGE AT THE WEB SITE. A help file is on the way and should be available late August. What is NetLoad? ---------------- NetLoad is a smart file transfer system which maintains remote sites using conventional FTP. It transfers new or updated files, and also recreates entire directory structures on the remote site, removes old files and old directories. About this evaluation version ----------------------------- This evaluation version contacts the NetLoad Permission Server in Australia which gives you 50 FULL transfer sessions of NetLoad. You must be connected to the internet to contact the permission server. If the server cannot be contacted, or the 50 use limit has been reached, NetLoad will only transfer files less than 1024 bytes. Starting NetLoad for the first time ----------------------------------- NetLoad has an easy to follow, six step, getting started help screen. Remote File List Caching ------------------------ NetLoad cahces the remote directory once downloaded to save you time. Although NetLoad maintains a perfect list of the remote site, it's wise to press 'refresh' on the remote site to make sure NetLoad's list holds exactly what's there. Mirroring --------- To setup a mirror (download from remote site to your PC) check the 'mirror' box under the options tab. Proceed with the 'compare' and 'mirror' as per usual. Remember, files will be deleted from you local hard disk if the trash can icon is displayed. Online Registration ------------------- Registration is encrypted and sent to our server in Australia. It's as simple as filling out the details and pressing the 'send' button. Please email me if you have comments or bug reports. Cheers, Andrew McLean, Developer Aerosoft, Australia
