What's new in this version: It was recently brought to our attention that "CONMAN" is the registered trademark of Jason Data Services of El Toro, California. Therefore, our product name has been changed to "GAGE Network Connection Manager" or ConMgr for short. A online help file is now included that is accessible through the Help menu or by pressing F1. An order form with pricing information has been included in the order.wri file. Introduction: The intent of this product is to provide an easy way for Windows users to access the features of their network without having to go through the Windows File Manager and Control Panel. The primary interface allows the user to easily make and break network connections. This includes shared disk drives as well as printers. It provides a list of the current connections and allows a user to store frequently used network paths for quick access. Secondarily, the interface provides access to the extended features that are built into some Windows network drivers. Use: To use this product your network software must be loaded before you start Windows. You must be running a Windows network driver that supports the Microsoft Windows Network interface specification (if it works with the File Manager and the Control Panel, you're okay). You can run ConMgr from the Program Manager by running it from the File/Run menu or by adding it to a group and double clicking on its icon. Personally, I run it from the Tools menu in Metz TaskManager (or the ThreadZ TaskManager if you've upgraded). ConMgr will not load if your network is not running. If this is the case, exit Windows and start your network software. The first time you run ConMgr you will be greeted by a shareware notice message, read it and click OK to run ConMgr. Your current network connections will be displayed on the right in the list box labeled "Current:". If have no connections the list will be empty. See the online help for how to connecting and disconnecting network resources. Bug/incomplete List: empty Bug Fixes List: Fixed in v0.92 1) The "Add" button did not work correctly in v0.91.
