Terminal Emulation for Web

Browser-Based Host Access

TinyTERM AX for Web provides low-cost, centrally administrated, highly secure terminal emulation host access from Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser.

No Installation

Installed easily on any web server, including Microsoft, Apache, Linux, UNIX and others, TinyTERM AX for Web is configured from a server web page and downloads automatically when clicked on by internal or external users. No expensive-to-maintain Java subsystems are required, as TinyTERM AX uses Microsoft's ActiveX technology, which is supported on all Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8 platforms and Internet Explorer version 7, 8, 9 or 10.

Security

TinyTERM AX for Web uses SSH or SSL/TLS for secure connectivity. Based on industry-standard strong encryption, SSH and SSL/TLS allow users to access remote hosts securely over an internal network, VPN, or the internet.

In addition, TinyTERM AX for Web provides a locked-down user interface, so users cannot alter settings, increasing security.

Superior Terminal Emulation

TinyTERM AX for Web provides secure wireless access to remote systems with exact terminal emulation. Internet Explorer users can rely on TinyTERM for 22 terminal types, including IBM TN3270 and TN5250, Linux console, Wyse 50/60, DEC VT100/VT220/VT320, and SCOANSI.

Tech Tip: Windows 8 & RT Compatibility

Question: Will TinyTERM run on Windows 8?

Answer: TinyTERM versions 4.61 (July 2009) and higher will run on Windows 8. However, TinyTERM must run in the Desktop interface. It is not enabled for the Metro interface at this time.

Question: What about Windows RT, like on the Microsoft Surface tablet?

Answer: Right now TinyTERM does not run on Windows RT. We will be producing a version of TinyTERM for RT in the near future.
