What is Radmin?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Radmin is a remote control program that lets you work on another
computer remotely through your own. You see the remote computer's
screen in a resizable window on your own monitor or as the full
screen. Your mouse and keyboard control the remote computer so you
can work on the remote computer just as if you were sitting right at
it.
The remote computer can be anywhere on the Internet or in your local
network. You don't need a fast network connection. Even with a MODEM
the screen update speed is an acceptable 5-10 screen updates per
second. If the remote computer is on your LOCAL NETWORK the typical
speed is from 100 to 500 screen updates per second.
Often while working in Radmin's full-screen mode, you forget that you
are working on a REMOTE computer!
Radmin consists of two parts:
* The server on the remote computer that sends the remote
computer's screen display.
* The client�also called the viewer�that shows the remote screen
display on your own monitor.
To get started you need to run Radmin server on the remote computer.
Then run Radmin client on your own computer. The current version of
Radmin requires a TCP/IP connection between both computers, so you'll
need to set this up if they are not already connected.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What makes it different from other systems?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The speed: Radmin is much faster than every other remote control system
available. For example, we tested the widely used VNC�(AT&T's Virtual
Network Computing) and found that Radmin is 150 times faster!
Radmin outperforms every other known remote control system, including
pcAnywhere, Timbuktu, Remote Control, LapLink, etc.
The test was performed on:
Server: 800 X 600 65535 colors, running Windows NT 4.0 Service
pack 4
Client: 800 X 600 256 colors, running Windows 95
Ethernet 10 Mbit local network.

Features
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Run as a Service
Radmin server can work as a SERVICE under Win9X/ME/NT4.0/2000.
This lets you log a user on or off remotely.
Multiple Connections Support
Radmin server supports simultaneous multiple connections to the same
remote screen.
Full-Screen, Scaled and Windowed View Modes
Full-screen mode shows the remote screen full-size on your own monitor
Scaled mode lets you see the remote screen in a window on your monitor
scaled to the remote screen's defined size.
Video Hook Driver Technology is Used
Radmin uses video hook kernel mode drivers under Windows NT to capture
screen changes. This boosts the speed to hundreds of screen updates per
second.
File Transfer
Lets you transfer files easily between computers with Windows Explorer
like interface.
Remote Shutdown
Now you don't have to connect in the Full Control mode.
Telnet Server
Radmin server provides Telnet access to remote computers (except on
Win9x).
Windows NT Security Support
You can allow remote control, remote view, telnet and file transfer
access to specific users or user groups from an NT domain. If a user
logged into a WinNT domain connects to Radmin server, the user's
current username/password are employed by Radmin viewer to authorize
a connection to the Radmin server.
Password Protection
If Windows NT security support is switched off, access to a remote
computer is controlled by a password. Radmin uses a challenge-response
password authentication method based on 128 bit strong encryption.
128 Bit Strong Encryption of All Data Streams.
In the version 2.1 encryption is always enabled, it causes just 5%
performance loss.
IP Filter
Allows an access to the Radmin server only from specified IP addresses
and subnets.
Radmin Supports High-Resolution Modes
Display resolutions up to 2048 X 2048 X 32 bit color are supported by
Radmin.

System requirements.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No special requirements for hardware:
If your computer can run Windows 95 or higher, the program will run.
It even runs on a 386 with 8 MB RAM.
NOTE: Radmin still operates successfully when the display, mouse and
keyboard are disconnected from the remote computer, however some
computers do not boot successfully without a keyboard plugged in.
For All Operating Systems (Win9x/ME/NT/2000):
The computer must have TCP/IP installed, the most-used protocol for
networking computers.
Windows NT 4.0:
Service pack 4 or higher is required.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Two computers need to be connected by TPC/IP, either on a local network
or the Internet.
Radmin must be installed on each computer.
Before Installation For All Users:
Uninstall any earlier version of Radmin, before installing a newer
version.
For Windows 2000 Users:
* You need administrator rights to install Radmin Server as a service.
For Windows NT 4.0 Users:
* You need administrator rights to install Radmin Server as a service
and install the driver.
* Before installing Radmin's video hook driver be sure that any
other Remote Control software that uses video hook driver
technology has been removed.
Running more than one video hook driver can lead to a system crash
while booting.
Sample applications that use a video hook driver: NetMeeting 3.0+,
SMS, Timbuktu.
If a problem occurs while booting with the Radmin driver, you can
press�the '1' (number one) key repeatedly during booting and the
Radmin driver will not load.

Radmin Security
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of attention was paid to security issues in the Radmin design
from the outset. Here are some reasons that Radmin's operations are
completely secure:
* Radmin 2.1 supports Windows NT/2000 user level security. You
can allow remote control to specific users or user groups.
* If Windows NT security support is switched off, access to a
remote computer is restricted by password. Remote Administrator
uses a challenge-response password authentication method. This
method is similar to the authentication method used in Windows
NT, but uses more powerful security keys.
* Remote Administrator has an encrypted mode, where all data,
including screen images, mouse movements and keypresses are
encrypted. 128 bit Twofish encryption is used. Twofish crypto
is distinguished for its combination of speed, flexibility and
conservative design.
* Remote Administrator server has a logging feature. All actions
are written to the log file.
* Remote Administrator server has an IP filter table that
restricts
