News Release

StarNet Launches Feature Rich SSH Client for Windows Computers

San Francisco (CA) - RSA Conference, February 7, 2007 —StarNet Communications of Sunnyvale (California), a leading developer of Windows-to-Linux/Unix host access solutions, announces the release of StarNetSSH, a fully featured suite of connection security tools for Windows-based computers, including Windows Vista.  StarNetSSH includes SSH terminal, Secure File Transfer (SFTP), Secure Copy (SCP), telnet, rlogin and KeyGen/KeyAgent facilities for the generation of public/private encryption key pairs.

“StarNet now offers commercial and government organizations an affordable, high-performance and simple to use general purpose SSH tool suite fully backed with technical and engineering support,” said Steven Schoch, co-founder and CEO of StarNet Communications. “StarNetSSH is aimed at customers of our popular X-Win32 line of PC X server solutions as well as other organizations who need a commercially-supported general purpose set of SSH tools to establish secure connections between their Windows client and Linux/Unix host systems.”

StarNetSSH licenses list at $95 with volume discounts starting at 10 copies. Licenses come with free tech support for life and one year of free upgrades. StarNet offers free engineering support for fixing bugs and implementing customer-requested features and other enhancements.

With StarNetSSH, StarNet continues to deploy its strategy of offering a low-cost, simple-to-use solution that offers leading edge performance and innovative features. StarNetSSH features include:

• Simple Installation: StarNetSSH offers a professional MSI install engine that installs all seven functional components and the StarNetSSH Help in a single install.
• Update Tool: StarNetSSH features an auto-update tool that alerts users when a new build with bug fixes and new features is available for download. Updates with bug fixes become available to customers within hours of completion.
• Simple User Interface: StarNetSSH offers a simple graphics-based user interface for configuration of SSH Session and generating public/private key pairs.
• Modern File Structure: StarNetSSH stores all user-defined configurations in the XML file format, as opposed to the more problem-plagued System Registry format used by other SSH solutions. This means users can easily transfer their StarNetSSH sessions configurations to another computer.
• PuTTY Session Migration: StarNetSSH will automatically convert exiting PuTTY sessions to StarNetSSH session.

Free Trial

Evaluation copies of StarNetSSH can be downloaded free from StarNet’S Web site. The evaluation copy comes with a free trial license key.
