[comp.protocols.iso.dev-environ] Anyone got an Easy-to-use DUA?

andy@ARIEL.UCS.UNIMELB.EDU.AU (Andrew Jarvis) (04/09/91)

Hi,
	We are starting to use quipu but are not satisfied with DUA's that
   we have seen. That includes all the DUA's released with isode 6.8. We
   thought that the best was sd (pod too but X windows is not on all our 
   machines).  Even these require the user to have some knowledge of X500 and 
   as such are difficult enough to discourage the novice user.

   	We are wondering if anyone out there has written/knows of a  DUA
   that is very easy to use. Such a DUA would either hide X500 from the user
   or have extensive on-line help.  We are interested in a variety of platforms
   including unix,VMS,PC's using banyan, and macintosh. 

	Any ideas/suggestions/help gratefully received.

PSI will be releasing a shareware DUA for the MAC in early May.
