[Ashus]

LAN communication tool. It doesn't work beyond routers, you just need to know the another PC's name or IP address. Many features included (eg. searching for other online LAN computers, passworded rebooting, shutting down, logging off, suspending or hibernating PC). It must be resident to work. Can be divided to administrator and client mode (limited commands).

Nowadays replaced by Trillian's Rendezvous plugin and Remote Administrator (shutting down, etc.).
