About StarNet

StarNet Communications has been a leading developer of X Windows solutions since 1989. After establishing X-Win32 as the de facto standard in the higher education market during the early to mid-1990s -- 150 unlimited Campus Site Licenses worldwide -- X-Win32 has become of one the top three PC X servers in the government and commercial sectors as well.

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.




Where are my sessions located

Version 8 and later has now made it simple to copy and transfer sessions from one computer to another by storing each session in its own .xw32 file.

Version 8.2 and 9.X

My Sessions

In X-Config, sessions/subfolders which are found under the “My Sessions” folder are located here:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\StarNet\X-Win32\Sessions\

“My Sessions” are local to the current user only. He can add/remove/modify sessions as he pleases.

Shared Sessions

Shared Sessions can now be located in any path on the computer.

  1. Open X-Config
  2. Click on the Sessions Tab
  3. Press the “Session Path +”
  4. Browse to the folder containing the sessions
  1. Give the folder a Name for X-Config

    Sessions will now show up in X-Config.

    Version 8.1 and below

    X-Win32 sessions are located in two sections.

    In X-Config, sessions/subfolders which are found under the “Shared Sessions” folder are located here:

    C:\Program Files\StarNet\X-Win32 8.X\Sessions\

    In X-Config, sessions/subfolders which are found under the “My Sessions” folder are located here:

    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\StarNet\X-Win32\Sessions\

    Note that “Shared Sessions” are available to be used by any user of the system. This is good for administrators who want to set up all the sessions before deploying X-Win32 to the rest of the department. Limited users will not be able to modify these files.

    “My Sessions” are local to the current user only. He can add/remove/modify sessions as he pleases.
