FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MAXUM RELEASES RUMPUS FTP 4.0 Rumpus 4.0 combines the best of Mac OS and Unix to create a professional, easy-to-use file transfer server. December 9, 2004 - Rumpus FTP, the premier Internet file transfer server for Macintosh, is now even better. Rumpus 4.0, released today by Maxum Development, continues to offer the rock solid FTP services Mac administrators have relied on for years, but has been redesigned to take full advantage of Mac OS X. Administrators will first notice the completely new interface, rewritten specifically for Mac OS X and reworked to provide clean, simplified and responsive server management. The new Rumpus application also includes: * Fast context-sensitive help * An expanded setup assistant * Integrated self-diagnosis of common problems * Quicker, easier access to controls and server reports While the top-level interface is all new, the biggest changes are underneath, resulting in a server engine that is faster, more efficient and more reliable than ever. * Direct use of BSD sockets * High-performance threading optimized for single or multi-CPU Macs * Background operation as a Unix daemon process Of course, in addition to FTP, Rumpus 4.0 continues to offer and build upon the popular Web File Manager, the integrated Web service for performing common FTP tasks through any standard Web browser. Offering extremely simple file transfers for people who aren't familiar with FTP, the Web File Manager has also been thoroughly revised with improved customization options, superior performance and greater stability. Rumpus 4.0 Standard Edition is priced at $249, or $79 for an upgrade from any previous Rumpus version. A Professional Edition for larger organizations and ISPs is priced at $395, or $129 for the upgrade. In accordance with Maxum's "One Year Of Free Upgrades" policy, the update is free for any Rumpus customer who has purchased the product since May 1, 2003. Maxum will continue to sell and support Rumpus 3.5 for those that prefer to run Mac OS 8/9.
