Radmin — is a proprietary computer software for technical support, system administration and remote work for Microsoft Windows. The software enables users to work on a remote computer or multiple computers in real-time. Users see the remote computer's screen in a resizable window on their own monitor, or as the full screen. The mouse and keyboard control the remote computer. It is an easy-to-use software, and the VPN is launched with it. It allows for security features as well.

Key features include:

• Security: Provides a secure VPN tunnel. Encryption keeps your connection safe.
• High speed: The connection speed is up to 100Mbps.
• Reliability: Radmin VPN does not malfunction after months of continuous operation.
• Ease-of-use: Easy to set up and easy to manage for both IT professionals and home users.

Principle of operation

Radmin consists of two separate modules:

• Radmin Server, which is installed on a remote computer.
• Radmin Viewer on the local computer that shows the remote screen display on your own monitor.

All mouse movements and keyboard signals are transferred from the local computer directly to the remote computer over the network (via LAN or Internet), relaying the graphical screen updates back in the other direction. Radmin Server uses the mirror driver (also known as video hook driver) to read the remote screen bypassing the video display controller. The mirror driver allows reading only changing parts of the screen.

Features

Connection modes:

• Full control - shows you the desktop of the remote computer and allows you to control it with your local mouse and keyboard.
• View only - the same as full control mode, but only allows you to view the remote computer screen.
• Telnet - text-mode connection to the remote computer to use system commands and launch text-mode applications without a graphical interface.
• File transfer - lets you manipulate remote computer files and folders. Supports two-way file transfer with an auto-resume feature.
• Shutdown - special connection to shut down the remote computer.
• Text and voice chat - lets you converse with all users who are connected to the same computer via text chat or talk using a microphone.
• Send message - sends a text message that pops up on the remote computer.

Security

Radmin security options include:

• Advanced 256-Bit AES strong encryption of all data streams.
• Ability to use either Windows Security or Radmin Security.
• Windows security supports different permissions for specific users or user groups from a Primary Domain, Trusted Domains and the Active Directory. Supports automatic use of logged-in user credentials and Kerberos authentication.
• Radmin security supports different permissions for the users added to the Radmin Server access list. Radmin uses a new Diffie-Hellman based key exchange with 2048-bit key size for secure user authentication.
• IP Filter permits access to Radmin Server only from specified IP addresses and networks.
• DNS name and user name info added to the logfile.
• Smart protection from password guessing.

Limitations

One limitation is that when connected to a remote computer, the remote keyboard layout is always used. This means typing some characters on your local keyboard could result in the wrong character being printed on the remote computer.

In comparison with some competitors, another limitation of Radmin use is the inability to work with a remote computer that has a private IP address (by passing NAT).
