Treos, iPhones Are Now Welcome on Brown U. Network
Brown University has upgraded its campus network in ways that will make it friendlier to handheld devices, including Apple’s iPhone and Palm’s Treo, according to The Brown Daily Herald.
The university installed Microsoft’s Exchange ActiveSync on its mail servers over the summer, which will let people handle their e-mail on handhelds. The university also made changes that will let handheld users gain access to the university’s secure network using virtual-private-network software, the newspaper said.
“We knew there would be more wireless devices on the network this year, in addition to laptops,” said Christopher Grossi, Brown’s manager of help-desk field support and software distribution. —Lawrence Biemiller
