Remote Console Installation Overview

line mode and IBM PC character set, the configuration supported by the HP Remote
Assistant Communications Software (Terminal Plus). Terminal Plus requires a
386-based (or faster) PC, running Windows 3.1, 3.11, Windows 95, or Windows NT
3.5x, with at least 12 MB of available hard disk space, depending upon the terminal
emulation program you choose.
For remote console redirection, you'll also need
at least 16 MB of disk space for pcANYWHERE32. For NT graphics console
redirection, the remote console must be a 486-based (or faster) PC running Windows
95 or Windows 3.51 with at least 16 MB of available hard disk space.

to set up terminal emulation at the remote console and at the server. From the two
