Manage Servers with Remote Admin

The quickest method to begin cutting IT administration costs is by cutting down the amount of time spent getting to and working at the desk-side or off-site location of your server. In many cases, the time taken for an administrator to walk from his workstation to the problematic server in question would have been more than sufficient to resolve the issue. This is even more appropriate in the case of servers hosted on the WAN.  The remote admin software should therefore provide your administrators with the means to perform the role they would do in front of the server from the comfort of their workstation.

These means come in the form of different tools and automated bots. These allow you to remotely administer the servers on the LAN or WAN in a number of different ways:

- Remote control. This allows the systems administrator to interact with the server as if he were sat in front of the machine. He has full keyboard, mouse and visual access to the device.

- File Transfer.  This tool allows instant, secure transfer of data from the host to the client computer, no matter where the client server is. This can be done over the LAN, WAN or Internet, and is secured using 256 bit AES/Rijndael encryption. This gives the administrator the ability to transfer files, securely to the server he is working on.

- File Management. This is a set size storage facility available on the internet to all of your administrators. This gives them access to essential files no matter where they are, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. These can also be distributed directly from the central repository to other administrator repositories and even down to servers and workstations themselves.

These are just some of the features available in NTRadmin from NTRglobal. For more on their WAN management features, please read our article on Remote Network Management. A free trial of NTRadmin is available for download now, or please contact our sales representatives for more information.
