The Sun Ray Software product team is pleased to announce the Sun Ray
Software 5 Early Access 1 (EA1) program. It begins today, 7/8/09, at
12:00 pm PT and it will end on 7/31/09.
The focus of this program is on three core new features:
1) Adobe Flash Enhancements
Sun Ray Software 5 provides Adobe Flash enhancements which enable
customers to experience improved frame rates along with synchronized
audio, video, and Adobe Flash animation playback for the Sun Ray 2
family of clients and its follow-on product family.
Supported environment:
o Internet Explorer 7 and 8
o Adobe Flash 9 content with all Adobe Flash plugins from versions 9 & 10
o Windows Server 2003 R2 (32-bit) and Windows XP SP3 (32-bit)
Users will need both components of Sun Ray Software - Sun Ray Server
Software & the Sun Ray Connector for Windows OS. In additional to the
Windows environment mentioned above, users need to install Sun Ray
Server Software which runs on the following platforms:
o Solaris 10 5/09 or higher on SPARC and X86
o SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 10 Service Pack 2 (32-bit and 64-bit)
o Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 Update 3 (32-bit and 64-bit)
2) Windows Server 2008
Sun Ray Software 5 enables customers to display applications within
Windows Server 2008 in 32 bit color. Windows Server 2008 Session
Directory support is also included.
Supported platforms:
o Solaris 10 5/09 or higher (SPARC and X86)
o SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 10 Service Pack 2 (32-bit and 64-bit)
o Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 Update 3 (32-bit and 64-bit)
3) Sun Ray Soft Client:
The Sun Ray Soft Client is a software application that easily installs
on common client operating systems and provides the ability to connect
to a Sun Ray server and initiate a Sun Ray desktop session from a
Windows laptop or desktop computer. An alternative to using a Sun Ray
hardware client (DTU), the Sun Ray Soft Client meets the needs of
end-users who do not fit the desktop thin client model or may need to
connect from their existing laptop or desktop PC. The Sun Ray Soft
Client also provides the flexibility to 'hotdesk' to and from your Sun
Ray thin client and any supported Sun Ray Soft Client enabled PC.
Supported platforms:
o Microsoft Windows XP
o Microsoft Windows Vista
o Microsoft Windows 7

Early Access 2 (EA2) will kickoff in the late summer time frame. The
focus of EA2 will be on USB connectivity support for Windows Remote
Desktops - allowing users the ability to use USB devices in a full
screen kiosk environment on a Windows XP desktop (Solaris SPARC and x86
only).
Thank you for your participation in the Sun Ray Software 5 Early Access
1 Program!
Best,
Angela Carducci
