| OSLO, BUSINESS WIRE -- Xandros, the leading provider of easy-to-use Linux alternatives to Windows, and Trolltech(R), a leading provider of technologies that make advanced software faster to build and easier to use, today announced that Trolltech's Qt(R) development framework was used to create the new Xandros Server, which recently won the Product Excellence Award at LinuxWorld Boston. Utilizing the robust and efficient Qt framework, Xandros developers created the all-graphical user interface called Xandros Management Console (xMC).
Similar in concept to the Microsoft Management Console that ships with Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 servers, xMC presents a simplified, centralized approach to remotely administering users and services, unlike any other on the Linux server market today. Qt was also used to create a unique plug-in architecture that enables third party services, such as Scalix groupware and RealNetworks media delivery, to be integrated and managed within xMC just like other services running on a Xandros Server. ''Through the use of the robust Qt development framework we were able to save countless hours of development time, while producing superior code and documentation,'' said Ming Poon, Xandros VP of Product Development. ''Qt's cross-platform framework, in conjunction with the platform-neutral design we built into xMC, will allow us to seamlessly port a Windows version of xMC so that administrators can manage Xandros Server from their Windows workstations as well.'' ''To break open the market for Linux servers we had to think out of the box, not only to create our Managed Community and workflow automation technologies, but also to incorporate the command-line power of Linux into the all-graphical, Qt-based xMC, to present a simplified, centralized approach to remotely administering users and services,'' said Andreas Typaldos, Xandros CEO. ''We are pleased to see that Xandros is using Qt to put the benefits of Linux server technology into the hands of a broad new class of server administrators,'' said Naren Karattup, product director, development tools, Trolltech. ''In addition to the efficient development Xandros experienced using Qt in their breakthrough product, the ability to easily target new platforms is a core benefit of Qt for all of our customers.'' Powerful Managed Community Model and Graphical Interface Xandros Server, built on top of Debian Linux, provides a powerful Managed Community model with consolidated system monitoring and workflow automation to address the issues normally encountered when administering SMB systems. It presents a simplified, centralized approach to remotely administering users and services through the all-graphical Xandros Management Console (xMC). It is compatible with any existing Windows domain and networking infrastructure, offering a plug-and-play replacement to costly Windows servers. Xandros Server also provides a unique plug-in architecture that enables third party services to be integrated within xMC, and be managed just like any Xandros service.
