Additional requirements: Intel Pentium-compatible processor or higher for Windows OS; Power PC processor with Power Mac for Mac OS; SPARC 5 or higher for UNIX OS. Internet access might be required to print?

The ReadMe file also includes some information on requirements for additional systems. I'm not sure what these systems are, so I decided to include the requirements in the comments window. Running NetSpot on Unicenter TNG requires Windows NT 4.0 (SP5); SQL Server 6.5 (SP3); CA Unicenter TNG Release 2.2; 25 MB disk space + 6 MB for CA Unicenter TNG. Running NetSpot on OpenView NNM requires Windows NT 4.0 (SP5) or Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2000 Professional or Sun Solaris 2.5.1/2.6/2.7; HP OpenView Network Node Manager 6.0/6.1; 25 MB disk space + 6 MB for OpenView NNM. Running NetSpot on Tivoli NetView requires Windows NT Server 4.0 (SP5) or Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2000 Professional or Sun Solaris 2.5.1/2.6/2.7; Tivoli NetView 5.1/6.0; 25 MB disk space + 6 MB for Tivoli.

Netspot supports the following protocols for device communication. Windows: IPX/SPX; TCP/IP; NetBIOS. Mac: TCP/IPAppleTalk. UNIX: TCP/IP.

To use NetSpot with NetBIOS in Windows 95, you must install WinSock 2. To use NetSpot in Novell NetWare environment, Server software needs NetWare version 3.x, 4.x, 5.x, while Workstation software needs Novell NetWare Client.

This is a print queue manager that can work on different operating systems, so there is no import/export/open/save functionality. Acrobat Reader 4.05 installed from CD.

I selected 'likely functioning as intended' because the software doesn't have any apparent bugs. That said, I can't connect a printer, so I can't actually test it out! This is the only problem I noticed.
