Centralized, automated administration, lower cost of ownership

Managing the installation and configuration of client software can be expensive and time-consuming for IS departments. Netscape Communicator Professional Edition includes Netscape AutoAdmin, a component that dramatically lowers the cost of ownership by minimizing the support and deployment time and costs of Communicator, its plug-ins, and other software components. When AutoAdmin is used with Netscape Mission Control Desktop, IS managers can manage and update Communicator from a single server.

Set and change client settings from a centralized server.

  • IS Administrators can centrally set more than 200 client preferences
  • Ensure that users have the latest configuration information by setting a polling interval for the client
  • Manage settings from a server-side file or through any LDAP-compliant directory server
  • Extend configurations using JavaScript
  • Automatically download, or "push", new versions of Communicator components and third-party add-ons
  • Use Mission Control Desktop to digitally sign components with a corporate or organizational digital certificate

Centrally manage Communicator Professional Edition for automatic configuration and software distribution.
