- PURPOSE
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- TWD Industries proudly presents Remote-Anything, the latest version of its
- Remote-Control Administration Tool which allows to use a distant PC as if
- you were there.
-
-
- - What's new about Remote-Control?
- After all, well established ten-year-old companies like Symantec and other
- major players of the software business are offering similar products...
- Similar? Not really.
-
-
- RA is 500 TIMES smaller than PC Anywhere, much more powerful and far
- less expensive so now you can afford to install RA on every PC of your LAN.
-
-
- RA is installed (and configured) after you copy and run the 72KB Slave.exe
- file on the PC you intend to control, you only need to bind the security
- password to the Slave.exe file itself.
-
-
- Deployment on thousands of PCs is a breeze...
-
-
- Those facts are not marketing hype: RA can be downloaded in seconds where
- other products require much more time and detailed and confusing installation
- and configuration instructions. Endless downloads also have a cost.
-
-
- But the real point is: RA and TWD give you direct access and influence when
- it comes to updates to the product or adding features that you suggest.
- We regularly include new features that our users request.. almost as fast
- as they ask for them. Our policy FREE UPDATES the 1st year, no questions asked.
-
-
- This last argument could seem benign if RA were not evolving like a wild
- Darwinian creature. In less than two years RA has reached a point where it can
- favorably be compared to ten-year-old competitors. AND every few months you
- will get the UPGRADES to the hottest product on the market - at no extra cost.
-
-
- Example:
- To come soon: a combined Voice over IP Telephone and Voice Answering machine.
-
-
- Hopefully you can see the value in this small investment. RA packs a whollop
- for pennies a day... with added value in each update... How can you lose.
-
-
- Comparing TWD Industries, you can see that is not Symantec. TWD Industries
- doesn't make money with Demo CDs, outdated manuals, less than perfect
- Technical Support, Program Updates, and so on.
- With TWD industries, the Demo is free, the Manual is free, the Technical
- Support and the Program Updates are free the first year... and the software
- itself is the best value you can find anywhere.
-
-
- At TWD Industries we just want to make things become possible. For everyone.
-
-
- RA can be used on many PCs simultaneously and is invisible to the remote user
- since it does not appear on the task list and loads at OS startup. RA allows
- real stealth surveillance as well as administration, instant training,
- interactive chat and user assistance, by providing an easy way to work on
- multiple remote computers at the same time.
-
-
- RA is continuously evolving and comes with unsurpassed support: As a customer,
- if you identify a bug, not only will TWD Industries give you a free license,
- but usually a fix is provided by the next business day!
-
-
- Requires : Windows 95-98-ME-NT4-2000-XP, TCP/IP networked PCs
- Price : $20 per remote PC (discounts for orders of more than 25 licenses)
- Information: <http://www.twd-industries.com>

- INSTALLATION
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Remote-Anything consists of only two programs:
-
-
- - Master.exe: which allows to use and control distant Slave PC(s)
- - Slave.exe : which allows to send information from a distant PC to Master(s)
-
-
- In order to use RA, you COPY and RUN Slave on PC #1 and Master on PC #2
- (Slave.exe on ONE computer and Master.exe on a DIFFERENT computer).
- You're DONE!
-
-
- That's the easiest possible installation procedure, isn't it?
-
-
- The PCs MUST be connected by a working TCP/IP network (if you have any doubts,
- check our website for a FAQ discussing the entire process).
-
-
- When the Master asks for a UserKey type in 'trial', then type the IP address of
- the PC where the Slave is (or use the autodetection button) and type in 'trial'
- in the password entry box. You should connect now. If you do not, take a look
- at the FAQ. It is also strongly suggested that you read the Manual available
- at our website.
-
-
- This Demo version allows to establish connections with only 2 Slaves for
- five-minute sessions only and does not retrieve system passwords for security
- reasons. The Demo version does not allow to change the default port number
- (4000) and the default password (trial).
-
-
- Registration will keep this from becoming a security threat: all Demo users
- share the same port and can access your Slave PCs with the same password.
-
-
- This program is not freeware. You are supposed to purchase licenses ($23 per
- Slave PC) if you use his demo more than 30 days.
