Atelier Web Remote Commander (AWRC) 3.1 release!
================================================

Atelier Web Remote Commander lets you manage and audit servers and
workstations from your local computer and provide remote helpdesk
support.

At first sight, this does not seem to bring anything new to the
arena, since there are very powerful tools in the market that provide
remote connection capabilities with good performance.

However, the very moment you install and try AWRC you will
immediately notice that you are dealing with a completely different
sort of tool.
* AWRC does not require that you install any software on the remote
machine, simply point and shoot. This turns the software particularly
useful for accessing remote machines where no previous preparation
has been made.
* Unlike the competion, AWRC provides lots of powerful tools for
remote management and audit. With such tools you will be able to
perform operations on the remote system that the remote interactive
user himself could only dream about. With AWRC you have the knowledge
and capabilities to do virtually anything on the remote computer!
* AWRC is safe. A remote user, without Administrator privileges, can
not gain higher privileges by controlling AWRC operation on the
remote system.

AWRC works across Microsoft Networks and is able to access
NT-Technology based machines, the requirement being that your log-in
credentials must have Administrator's privileges on the remote
machine or, alternatively, you must be able to supply a User
Name/Password of an account in the Administrator's group of the
remote machine.

REQUIREMENTS
============

AWRC 3.1 requires the following:

* PC compatibles on local and remote systems with Pentium II/III 450
or higher. Pentium/AMD 800 or higher recommended. 
* 64 MB of RAM on local and remote machine (128 MB or higher,

* Windows® NT 4.0 SP4+, 2000 or XP on the local system and Windows®
NT 4.0 SP4+, 2000 or XP Pro on the remote system.

Simple File Sharing from Windows Explorer/Tools/Folder Options.

remote machine or, alternatively, you must be able to supply a User
Name/Password of an account in the Administrator's group of the
