Radmin is the fastest remote control software available. It is optimized for low-bandwidth connections such as modems. Connecting via modem, screen refreshment rate reaches 5-10 updates per second. If connected to a LAN you can work on remote computer with real-time speed, reaching over 100 screen updates per second.
Functionality
•Operating systems support: Windows 9x/ME/NT4.0/2000/XP/2003*
•Radmin Server can work as a service under all supported operating systems, which allows you to logon and logoff a user remotely.
•Radmin supports Windows NT/2000/XP/2003* user level security. You can give the right of remote control to a specific user or user group.
•If Windows NT security support is switched off, access to a remote computer is controlled by password. Remote Administrator uses a challenge-response password authentication method similar to that used in Windows NT, but with more powerful security keys.
•Supports multiple connections on both server and client sides.
•Supports the controlling of multiple remote computers and the viewing of multiple sessions on one screen.
•View modes include Full-Screen, Scaled and Windowed. Full-Screen mode lets you see the remote screen on the entire screen of your display. Scaled mode lets you see the scaled remote screen in a window with a user defined size.
•Radmin uses a video hook kernel mode driver under Windows NT 4.0 to improve performance. This lets you work on a remote computer with an incredible 'real-time' update speed (hundreds of screen updates per second). The Win2000/XP/2003 compatible version of the driver will be included in the coming version of Radmin.
•Transfers files to or from a remote computer. With Radmin you can easily drag and drop files via Explorer-like interface.
•Lets you remotely shutdown a computer without having to connect in remote screen mode.
•Radmin server provides Telnet access to remote computers when it's Server runs on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003.
•Has multilingual support using one file per language so it is not necessary to download and re-install Radmin for each language. More... More info

•Can send Ctrl-Alt-Del to a remote computer
•Reduced network usage in minimized mode of the viewer's remote screen window
•Automatic disconnection of frozen remote screen connections
Radmin Security
A lot of attention was paid to security questions in the Radmin design. Here are some reasons Radmin operations are completely secure:
•Radmin supports Windows NT/2000/XP/2003* user level security. You can give the right of remote control to a specific user or user group.
•If Windows NT security support is switched off, access to a remote computer is controlled by password. Remote Administrator uses a challenge-response password authentication method similar to that used in Windows NT, but with more powerful security keys.
•Radmin prevents incorrect Server configurations. Radmin Server 2.2 does not allow empty passwords.
•Server password protection. New Radmin Server 2.2 actively protects its settings, which are stored in the system registry. Only a user with administrator rights can access this registry branch.
•Remote Administrator works in encrypted mode where all data, screen images, mouse movement and keys are encrypted using 128 bit strong encryption with randomly generated keys.
•Radmin Server has a logging feature where all actions are written to the log file.
•Radmin Server has an IP filter table so access can be restricted to specified IP addresses and networks.
•Radmin has a self-testing code defense that protects its code from being altered.
•All algorithms used in Radmin are industry standard: TWOFISH, MD5.
•New, fully OS-integrated NT security system with NTLMv2 support. Permissions for Radmin connections can be given to users from trusted domains and active directories. Security settings interface is unified with Windows standard.
•Smart protection from password guessing. This protection includes such features as password anti-guessing security delays, banning IP adresses with excessive number of password guess attempts, etc.
•Radmin Server 2.2 starts as a service and doesn't start as an application on Windows NT/2000/XP*, which improves security.
(*) Radmin 2.2 is incompatible with the "switch user" feature of Windows XP or Windows 2003. Radmin 2.2 works fine on Windows XP and Windows 2003 only if this feature is turned off or not used.
