Remote Manager
Hands-on when you need it — connect to remote desktops, Linux shells, or websites all in one connection tree, tabbed and side by side.
The connection tree
Organize your infrastructure into folders containing connection groups, each holding hosts. A group's protocol is tagged in its name — (RDP), (SSH), (SCP), (VNC), or (WEB) — so the right tool launches for every machine.
Availability checker
ServerEngine continuously checks whether each host is reachable on its protocol port and marks it online or offline in the tree, so you always know what's up before you connect.
| Protocol | Tool | Port |
|---|---|---|
| RDP | FreeRDP | 3389 — full Windows desktop, clipboard, drive redirect |
| SSH | PuTTY | 22 — secure command-line access |
| SCP | WinSCP | 22 — drag-and-drop file transfers |
| VNC | TigerVNC | 5901 — Linux desktops, optional TLS |
| WEB | Web2App | any web admin UI as a native window |
Sessions & split view
Connections open as tabs inside ServerEngine, so you manage many machines at once without a wall of separate windows. Use split view to arrange one, two, or three panes side by side, and drag hosts from the tree straight into the pane you want.
Working in a session
- RDP — full desktop control with bidirectional clipboard (text and files) and optional local-drive redirection.
- Keyboard handoff — ServerEngine releases modifier keys and hands keyboard focus cleanly between embedded sessions, so shortcuts go to the right machine.
- Web2App — wrap any browser-based admin console (a switch, a NAS, a hypervisor UI) in a dedicated window right alongside your terminals.
