[Macpartners] iPassConnect Release Effort Underway

[Albert Willis]

Good afternoon.

Information Services and Technology is pleased to announce a release  
effort for iPassConnect 2.37 for Mac OS X and iPassConnect 3.40 for  
Windows XP. iPassConnect allows faculty and staff members to access  
iPass, a service that allows users to use commercial dialup and  
wireless networks without having to pay for them individually.

In addition to releasing new versions of the iPassConnect client  
software, the release effort will test the ability of MIT users to  
access MITnet services using commercial wireless networks while  
traveling. IS&T currently supports the use of dialup connections  
using iPass.

More information can be found in the iPass release notebook, located  
at http://web.mit.edu/swrt/releases/ipass/.

If you have questions, suggestions, or would like to participate in  
the release of iPass, please contact the team at ipass-release at mit.edu.
