StarNet - X-Win32

X-Win32 is the ONLY PC X server that lets you connect to multiple UNIX/Linux desktops at the same time and also run some X Windows applications in separate Xterm windows. That is just one of the innovative features in X-Win32 that greatly boosts your productivity.

Major Features:

• Multiple XDMCP Sessions allows you to run multiple Unix and Linux desktops from different UNIX and Linux servers. Simply alt-tab between desktops.
• MultiCast allows you to narrow the list of X servers and workstations that respond to an XDMCP query to just those you are interested in.
• Session Administration & Distribution. Version 5.4 includes a new X-Admin32 tool that allows users to create sessions that are saved to a file. The file can be attached to an email to a group of users or can be saved in a shared folder on the network. Double-clicking the file will install the session(s) in the user´s registry. X-Admin32 also allows administrators to update network license keys on end user computers.
• LBX Support enables users to significantly increase performance of the X applications when connected to a server over a slow connection.
• OpenGL Support. X-Win32 now connects to powerful 3-D applications based on the Silicon Graphics OpenGL and GLX protocols.
• Integrated SSH. X-Win32 was the first X11 server to integrate SSH as a connection option besides rsh, rexec and xdmcp. X-Win32 licenses even come with a bundled SSH client from F-Secure.
• Windows Terminal Server Support lets system administrators set up X-Win32 on a Windows or CITRIX terminal server to allow the terminals, even diskless thin client terminals, connect to a Linux or Unix server.
• Error Logging: Coming in Version 5.4 (August release), Error Logging enables the user to turn on this feature that will log the activity leading up to an error or the popping up of an error dialog box.
• Multi-Language: X-Win32 can be installed in either English, German: French, Spanish, Japanese and Italian.
• Microsoft Installer (MSI) added to enable remote installation of X-Win32 among a large group of users in an enterprise or university.
• Single Windows Mode, Multiple Window Mode or Both. You can run some sessions in SWM on one monitor and other in MWM on another monitor or alt-tab back and forth from the Unix and Windows desktops.
• Small Size: X-Win32 measures less than 10 megabytes.
• Saving Windows Settings: X-Win32 is the only PC X server that automatically saves settings for the desired Window Mode for each application.
• Create Desktop Shortcut feature added that lets users create a shortcut to a session with a single click of the mouse in X-Config – Sessions
• A Session Wizard makes it simple to set up sessions on a Linux or Unix server.
• Multiple Monitor Support for both Windows 98, Windows 2000 and Windows XP
• Pop-up Dialog boxes now have a Help button that brings up the corresponding page in the Help System.LI>Multiple Networking Cards are now supported for users who deploy more than one networking card in their Windows PC.
• nInteractive Help System, including dynamically linked pages and a keyword search file.
• Auto Start. You can set up sessions to auto-start on booting the program.
• Single Source: A single installation for X-Win32 covers all Windows OS platforms and connects to all UNIX and Linux operating systems.
• Color Depth Support: X-Win32 supports 1, 8 and 24 color debts with 8 and 24 planes of root window depth.
• System Tray: X-Win32 places itself in the system tray to avoid cluttering up the user´s task bar.
• Concurrent Licensing: X-Win32 offers an innovative concurrent (floating) licensing system. This self-monitoring system is completely transparent to the user and does not require any dedicated license server.
