Sharity 3.3
Sharity - Connect to Windows file servers more>>
This is the file-sharing protocol used by Windows NT, 95, 98, 2000, ME, Windows for Workgroups, OS/2, Samba and many others. Sharity mounts these servers in your file system.
Mounting means that you can open files directly from the server with any application you like, as if they were on a local disk.
Other clients (such as smbclient from the Samba suite) provide only an ftp-like interface where you can copy files to and from the share but cannot open them directly on the server.
Main features:
- Access files on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, 2003, XP, Samba, AppleShare IP, FacetWin and other CIFS servers.
- Provides network browsing facility similar to Windows "Network Neighborhood".
- Runs on almost any Unix operating system (including Mac OS X). Click here for a complete list
- Easy Installation.
- Faster than NFS servers for Windows.
- Shares are mounted in the file system: You can open files directly from the server.
- Seamless integration with your operating system Environment: The Graphical User Interface asks for passwords and is used to configure Sharity.
- Source-code available for download. Download Source Code Now
- Encrypted password transmission.
- Can be compiled with OpenSSL for secure encrypted data transfer.
Version restrictions:
- There are a couple of conditions where you can use Sharity for free. Students can register a regular license for free. If you run Mac OS X, Linux or FreeBSD at home, our binary package for these platforms (beginning with version 2.4) has a "Sharity Single" license built-in. All others may use Sharity in demo-mode for free. Demo-mode is limited to 3 levels of directory hierarchy.
Swift Share 1.1.1
Swift Share is designed to meet all your needs of sharing files across your local network! more>>
Swift Share 1.1.1 is designed to meet all your needs of sharing files across your local network! Swift Share allows the easy creation of both Windows and Macintosh share points. Take control of Mac OS X's built-in file servers and tweak them to perfection.
Share points are points across the network at which remote users can access your files. Mac OS X gives you one default share point: your home directory. However, if you're anywhere but home, you won't want to be giving everyone access to your entire home directory! Using Swift Share, choose only which folders you share and which users have access.
The power of Swift Share doesn't end at its ability to manage your share points. It also offers unique flexibility to manage users and groups on your system. For instance, create a new group of sharing-only users to access a "Games" folder on your computer.
Swift Share also gives you more than just start and stop controls for the powerful file servers built-in to Mac OS X. Customize nearly one hundred aspects of the Apple and Windows file servers. From user limits, guest permissions, and logging to workgroups, authorization modes, and greetings!
Enhancements:
- Will no longer use up an additional activation if reactivating on the same machine.
Koingo Software - Manage server configurations and share points for both Apple and Windows (Samba) file sharing. Swift Share

Power Search for the network
Searchlight brings Apples Spotlight to the network. Through a web interface you are able to search with incredible speed for documents stored on your server. A click on one of the results connects your computer to the server and shows the document.
Documents notify
Searchlight Notification with RSS In the last years subscription based services started to evolve. They inform you about changes on websites, podcasts and more. Searchlight provides a subscription service for your documents. Powered by RSS technology Searchlight informs you whenever documents are changing or when new ones are created.
Main features:
Spotlight for everyone:
- A lot of companies define rules and definitions how documents shall be filed away on the network servers. Unfortunately most companies fail with this approach. Employees are clicking through the server directories to find lost documents. Its a fact that a countless number of valuable hours of work is lost each year to find documents.
- The biggest limitation of Spotlight is its limitation to the local machine. Searchlight wil bring the power of Spotlight to your LAN. Searchlight even brings the innovation of Spotlight to Windows and Linux users through a very simple web interface. A web browser is the only requirement to use Searchlight.
- Searchlight automatically detects the connectivity possibilities of its clients. Therefore Windows and Linux users are provided with Windows File Sharing (SMB) Links to access the found documents. Mac users will get access through the Apple Filing Protocol (AFP). Searchlight even falls back to SMB when a document is not available through AFP. For our beloved Mac clients we even provide UrlRunner a special program to overcome some of the inconveniences of the Finder. Check out the help of the web client for details about UrlRunner.
Change Notification through RSS:
- RSS (Really Simple Syndication) has evolved over the last years. Subscription services like Podcasting and Videocasting have become very popular and use RSS. Weblogs use RSS to propagate new articles to their readers. Searchlight brings this innovation to your file server. Execute your search through Searchlight and subscribe to the search afterwards. Whenever a document which fits to your search criteria is changed or created you will be notified through your RSS reader. You can safely stop sending those "I have changed Xyz.doc" mails to your colleagues.
Saved Searches:
- The Mac OS X Finder provides a functionality to define the most complex search criteria for Spotlight through a very simple interface. These complex search criteria can be stored as so called "Saved Search". Searchlight collects the Saved Searches defined on your server and provides them in the web interface. Therefore you have the possibility to define the most complex search criteria and use with Searchlight. For your convenience you can create Saved Searches on your client Macintosh and later on copy the Saved Search definition to your servers hard-disk. Searchlight will automatically find the Saved Search and you are ready to use it through its web interface.
- Of course you can subscribe to Saved Searches in the same way as you could do for your normal Searchlight searches. Searchlight can create some basic Saved Searches when it is started for the first time. Be sure that you do not miss this cool feature.
Bonjour - Searchlight speaks Francais:
- As we said before we are doing our best to make the whole process of finding your documents as simple as possible. The process of finding your documents starts by connecting to the Searchlight system running on your server. But what was the URL for Searchlight? Whats the IP address of the server?
- With Searchlight and Mac OS X you can stop to remember URLs. Searchlight is propagating its service in your network through the Bonjour technology. Just open Safaris bookmarks and select "Bonjour" in the "Collections" and voila all available Searchlight Servers show up.
Version restrictions:
- Free Demo only works for 10 searches at a time.
