Timbuktu Pro Remote Control Software from Netopia

For IT professionals, Timbuktu Pro means the best remote control technology for reducing the Total Cost of Ownership, while simultaneously increasing productivity across the enterprise. For telecommuters, Timbuktu is an indispensable remote collaboration and communications tool that enables professionals to connect to remote machines in real time.

With Timbuktu Pro you can:

  • Control distant computers as if you were sitting right in front of them.
  • Connect over the Internet, on your local network, or modem to modem.
  • Invite other users to view all, or even just part of your screen.
  • Send files or folders directly, without tying up email with large attachments.
  • Make secure, encrypted connections through SSH.
  • Communicate by voice intercom, text chat or instant message.
  • Do all of this from Mac to PC, or PC to Mac.

New features in Version 8.0 for Windows include:

Stream Encryption and Compression - Timbuktu Pro version 8 supports SSH to encrypt and compress Timbuktu Pro connections. In addition to providing secure connections, SSH compression may increase Timbuktu Pro performance.

Enhanced Screen-Sharing Preferences - In Timbuktu Pro version 8, preferences for Guest and Host can be defined separately, and both offer a number of new options, each of which may increase the performance or security of your screen-sharing sessions.

On-the-Fly Preferences - The screen-sharing window¹s system menu has been expanded to allow you to control settings for the screen-sharing window itself, or to change the host preferences on the fly, during an active screen-sharing session.

Extended Logging - Timbuktu Pro now supports two different types of centralized logging for all the Timbuktu Pro computers on your network ­ Timbuktu Log Server, or NT Event Log Server ­ as well as a locally stored Event Log file. With these, you can more easily track performance, security and usage of Timbuktu Pro.

Single-Stream Connections - Timbuktu Pro now uses single-stream TCP connections by default, making it even easier to configure for operation through a firewall or NAT router.

MSI Installer - Timbuktu is now packaged using a fully-compliant MSI installer, giving you more options during installation.
