SUNNYVALE CA – August 17, 2009 -- StarNet Communications of Sunnyvale, California, a leading developer of remote host connectivity solutions, announced LinuxLIVE, the company’s first X server solution for Linux users seeking stable connections to applications running on remote Unix and Linux servers.
LinuxLIVE is an innovative Linux workstation solution that allows users to suspend and resume applications running on remote Linux and Unix hosts, share them with other Linux and Windows users and reconnect to remote applications after an otherwise fatal network, power or system failure.
Linux workstations are used extensively at high-tech companies where engineers connect from Linux to design applications running on powerful Unix and Linux servers. “We have seen a significant migration from Windows workstations to Linux workstations. LinuxLIVE gives us the opportunity to continue to serve these users with X server solutions that improve their productivity,” said StarNet co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Steven Schoch.
LinuxLIVE leverages StarNet’s LIVE client/server technology that keeps applications running on Linux and Unix servers when the connection between the client and server is severed by either a system, network or power crash. LinuxLIVE also allows Linux users to turn off their machines at the end of the workday and resume their remote sessions the next day, at home on another Linux machine. “Most who have Linux in the office have Windows machines at home. Now they can resume sessions they started on a Linux workstation in the office on a Windows computer at home using our X-Win32 X emulator, “ Schoch explained.
“LinuxLIVE allows us to bring our innovative LIVE session capabilities such as session recovery, session mobility and session sharing, to the Linux workstation platform. LinuxLIVE brings the interoperability between Linux and Windows clients and servers full circle. It no longer matters on which end-user platform you work at any given time. You can always connect to your remote Linux and Unix applications,” said Schoch.
LinuxLIVE lists at $99. LinuxLIVE can be downloaded from the StarNet web site.
StarNet Communications Corp., founded in 1989, develops and markets X11 solutions on the Windows and Linux platforms for corporate, educational and government organizations. StarNet's family of X server products offers cost-effective, best-of-breed X terminal emulation solutions. Based in Sunnyvale, Calif., the company is privately held.
