A new product is available as part of our site license for Starnet’s X-Win 32: FastX.
FastX is a simple PC X server solution. FastX allows you to connect over the Internet and work with even the most demanding remote hosted Linux and Unix applications at LAN speed. FastX sessions are persistent (you can reconnect after a network interruption) and secure. See Starnet’s FastX FAQ for information on how it compares to X-Win 32.
Visit https://oit.duke.edu/comp-print/software/license/detail.php?id=217 to download FastX. It is available to Duke faculty, staff, and students at no cost.
The OIT Labs license server has not been updated to work with FastX. A Node-Locked key (available on the download page) must be used. If you cannot use a node-locked key, you will have to continue using X-Win 32.
