NetView

NETVIEW is a network/web application that brings web publishing to non-web files, documents and databases (eg. plain text files, Unix DBMs). It allows access to, and viewing of, these files/documents/databases across the network, and via conventional web technologies (eg browser, web server).
In technical terms, NETVIEW operates as a CGI program on a web server, and it converts file/document/database contents "on-the-fly", thereby creating dynamic web pages.

IXConfig

IXCONFIG is a utility that is intended for use on UnixWare and assists in setting up the configuration required for IP-over-X.25 operation, where TCP/IP is the native UnixWare TCP/IP product and X.25 is the Spider Software X.25 product. It was developed for a US company, SBE Inc.
The utility and documentation are useful if you are developing any form of network interface to operate under the native UnixWare TCP/IP protocol stack (and, of course, it can be modified for other network interfaces), or if you just want to gain a better understanding of what is involved in such configuration.
