Zilab Remote Console Server description
Zilab Remote Console Server - Remote access server for Windows XP/2000/NT for console-based applications

Console-based (including some DOS legacy) applications are very widespread in many industries.
As time passes and your business grows - issues start to arise. You've opened a new location and need to provide access to one of such applications to multiple users.
Deploying software on each workstation is difficult and costly (considering the fact that each license may cost hundreds of dollars). Is there an easy and affordable way to do it?
Surely - just get Zilab Remote Console Server, install your console-base application on a server and any number of your users in any location will have access to it.
Zilab Remote Console Server, as its name implies, is an advanced and convenient remote access server for Windows XP/2000/NT that works with console-based and DOS legacy applications.

It runs as a regular network service for Windows NT/2000/XP and features multiple user support, dynamic console size tracking, transparent client side printing, port forwarding, session logs, and, most importantly, functions properly even when a connection is disrupted. It re-establishes connection or gracefully terminates a session if a certain (user specified) time period has passed.
Zilab Remote Console Server offers two important features that make this software standout from a crowd of competing titles.

First, it provides an easy way to print any information from the console application hosted on a server directly on a local printer.

This feature works accurately even when multiple users are connected. Second, unlike older telnet/SSH applications, Zilab Remote Console Server displays console panel without distortions and supports mouse, function keys and hotkey combinations (like Ctrl+C).

The connection and data transfer speeds are very fast.
Most importantly, the software can be tried free of charge. Should you decide to purchase the program, you pay only for the server-side part ($99). All client-side components are free!
