Publisher's description
Zilab Remote Console Server, as its name implies, is an advanced and convenient remote access server for Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT that works with console-based and DOS legacy applications. It runs as a regular network service for Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT and features multiple user support, SSL encrypted connections, dynamic console size tracking, transparent client side printing, port forwarding and session recording.
New port forwarding options now support HTTP and SOCKS 4/5 proxy interfaces on client and server to client port forwarding. This allows connecting various Internet applications including Web browsers, FTP and POP3 software over single secure connection to protect data from interception or modification by third parties.
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 the client 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!

The server program runs on Windows XP Pro machines and via the remote client we are able to access the Point-of-Sale system which is DOS based just as if we are in the store. This is at the same time the same workstation is used at the store.
I can also access the server CMD prompt for access. Fairly easy installation and setup.
An excellent solution for us.
