About StarNet

StarNet Communications has been a leading developer of X Windows solutions since 1989.

Unlike its major rivals, Exceed (Hummingbird) and Reflection-X (WRQ/Attachmate), X-Win32 offers a highly focused PC X server that offers superior performance and productivity features, stability, ease of use and low cost (40% or better in most cases).

StarNet also delivers unequaled customer support. Our state-of-the-art engineering infrastructure allows us to fix problems and make a new release available quickly (overnight in many cases). As our testimonials page shows, StarNet customers consistently rate their X-Win32 experience as the best in the industry.




Transfering Sessions to Other Computers

Sessions are now located in .xw32 files on the computer and can easily be transfered between machines.

To transfer a session to another machine.

  1. Find your sessions. See Where are my sessions located
  2. Copy the sessions to the new machine.
  1. Add the session path using “Session Path +” in X-Config

    Note: Passwords are encrypted to the specific computer they were originally created on. This means that passwords will not transfer from one computer to another. Simply reenter your password when you launch your session on the new computer.
