InterAccess TelnetD Server contains the industry�s most feature complete TelnetD server for Windows NT. InterAccess is an internet connectivity package for NT. It contains an Inet daemon and a Telnet daemon. The InetD is similar to it�s UNIX counterpart which can start an NT program when a client connects to a specified port. The TelnetD server runs industry standard telnet protocol and allows any telnet client to log into an NT machine. Since multiple telnet users can log in simultaneously, an NT machine is turned in to a multi-user machine. For easy management and configuration, two graphical management applications are provided. The Telnet Server Manager is provided to remotely manage telnet users logged on to an NT machine. InterAccess Manager is included in the package to manage programs started by InetD and change the settings of TelnetD Server. InterAccess runs over TCP/IP using WinSock in the Windows NT 3.51. 4.0 or later environment, and it uses the native security of Windows NT for user authentication and logon access controls.

InterAccess TelnetD Users

• The product�s primary use is in the growing internet servers based on Windows NT. NT based servers need to run WEB, FTP, WAIS, Gopher, DNS and Email/SMTP to complete the server offerings and be at least as capable as an UNIX server. InterAccess will be of interest to Internet Service Providers who want to setup shop with NT servers.
• Telnet allows remote access to NT machines via any telnet client. This feature allows system management, configuration and monitoring to be done remotely. Thus, it can be used as an NT server management tool.
• InterAccess runs in both NT servers and NT Workstations. A third audience for the InterAccess product are the programmers and users who want to use the remote connectivity and access that TelnetD provides. Just having the TelnetD server running in their office NT machine, they can telnet into it from home or other locations and run any of their console mode applications like vi and emacs editors, compilers and linkers, command line dubuggers, ftp and netstat TCP/IP tools.
• A fourth audience are people who want to use the multi-user capability that Telnet provides. A higher powered PC (based on Pentium for example) running NT can be interactively used by multiple users who have light-weight client machines on their desktop.

Features

• Start any NT programs or services when a client connects to a given TCP or UDP socket.
• Parameters can be passed to the started programs via NT registry.
• Reduces system load by only starting programs when they are needed.
• Provides easy configuration via InterAccess Manager.
• InetD is built as an NT service for running it even when no user is logged on.
• InetD can start TelnetD and other TCP/IP programs and non-TCP/IP programs if they are installed and configured.
• IP Filtering allows for limiting connections by IP Address

• The remote users telnet session acts as if they are typing the commands to a local NT command shell or program
• Can run any program that can be run in and NT machine. Any console mode 32-bit, 16-bit or DOS applications can be run. Examples are edit program, vi, emacs, debug, tree, dir, netstat, net, compiler, linker, ftp and lynx like programs.
• Multiple users can log in simultaneously Multiple User Configurations. Allows for you to configure the session environment for every telnet user on the system.
• Graceful application termination. When a telnet session is disconnected by any other means than a proper exit. Your application data can be saved gracefully by sending the appropriate exit codes to your running application.

Session Management Program

• WIN32 GUI program to manage TelnetD servers and telnet sessions remotely.
• Shows which users are logged onto NT servers via telnet sessions, how long they are on and user�s machine name.
• Allows administrators to log out one or more users from a TelnetD server machine.
• Uses native security of NT to restrict access to valid NT administrators.
• An administrator can manage TelnetD servers located throughout the internet or the enterprise from one Win32 machine via TCP/IP.
