Remote Workstation Control Remote Workstation Control can monitor or control the screen display of a remote system that is running Netfinity Manager (or Client Services for Netfinity Manager). Once you initiate a Remote Workstation Control session with another Netfinity Manager system, you can passively monitor events that are occurring on the display of the remote system or actively control the remote system desktop. When you initiate an active Remote Workstation Control session, clicks and keystrokes that are entered on your system are automatically passed to the remote system. With Remote Workstation Control, you can remotely start programs, open and close windows, enter commands, and much more. Screen View The Screen View service takes a "snapshot" of the system graphic display or any remote system running Netfinity Manager or Client Services for Netfinity Manager and displays it on the screen. These snapshots can be saved as bitmaps and viewed later. Security Manager The Security Manager service can prevent unauthorized access to some or all of the Netfinity Manager services. It uses incoming user ID and password combinations, and is available for network use only. Serial Connection Control The Serial Connection Control service enables remote systems running Netfinity Manager to access the system through a phone line and modem. With the Serial Connection Control service, you do not have to be attached to a network to benefit from the outstanding remote system access, monitoring, and management capabilities of Netfinity Manager. Note: The system must have a properly installed and configured modem that supports at least 9600 baud for the Serial Connection Control service to function. Service Configuration Manager Service Configuration Manager can save the configuration of a Netfinity Manager service from a selected system to a service configuration file (SCF). Once created, SCF files can be used by Event Scheduler to restore the configuration to the same system, or it can be used (in conjunction with Event Scheduler) to duplicate that configuration on other similar systems you choose. Software Inventory Software Inventory enables the user to create and manage software product dictionaries that can be used to easily maintain an inventory of all application programs installed on the system. System Diagnostics Manager System Diagnostics Manager enables you to initiate a variety of diagnostic tasks on systems that support ROM-based diagnostics. The results of all previously run diagnostic sessions are stored and can be examined using System Diagnostics Manager to help diagnose and resolve system problems. System Information Tool The System Information Tool enables quick and convenient access to detailed information on the hardware and software configurations of the system. System Information Tool gathers information about almost any computer; however, the Netfinity Manager 111
