Press Release Summary = Latest version of the unique server recovery and management
tool includes support for Windows based servers, a new API and free, 5 server
license.

Press Release Body = Jersey City, NJ (June 7th 2006) Comodo, through their Web
Hosting and server automation division PSOFT, announced today the immediate
availability of NOC Monkey 2.0 beta 1, the latest version of their advanced
web-based remote server provisioning solution. The software automates the usually
labor intensive task of server provisioning by providing a simple web based
interface from which operating systems can be remotely installed, recovered and
deployed.

Most notable of the improvements in Version 2.0 beta is the introduction of support
for Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP and Windows 2000 - extending the reach,
versatility and value of the application to web hosts and administrators offering
both Windows and Linux based services. The new build also sees the addition of
recovery mode support for the FreeBSD 6.0 operating system.

Also included in the latest version is the all-new NOC Monkey API (Application
Programming Interface). The feature, much requested by Psoft customers, enables
users to utilize and manage all the features of a NOC Monkey server from a console
interface.

Featuring admin and user level access, the system also enables administrators to
change root passwords, run fsck in single user mode, recover hacked servers and
custom partition hard disks from the same interface. Furthermore, using a new
\'grab/install\' system, the software adapts to various OS/hardware configurations by
auto detecting new servers.

NOC Monkey delivers enhanced provisioning speeds for datacenter administrators and
web-hosting companies alike. Within a few clicks, servers can be remotely recovered,
operating systems installed and root passwords changed - exercises that usually
require a physical presence and take time, effort and therefore money to accomplish.

The utility also represents large cost savings over alternative solutions such as
remote console or ghosting software.

Igor Seletskiy, CTO of Comodo, believes the new features in Version 2.0 make NOC
Monkey an invaluable tool for web hosts and data center administrators running
servers on multiple operating systems.

"There is now a low cost means for datacenter operators in multi-vendor environments
to slash overheads, increase efficiency and provisioning speeds whilst extending
functionality and adding to their customer value proposition. "

NOC Monkey is available for trial with 5 free server licenses from
