You can use ShareISDN to share the functions of an ISDN-Card with other users in a network. For example, every person within a company can send faxes, transfer files or access the Internet via one single ISDN-Card. Installing an ISDN-Card in every single computer of a network would give the same result but of course this would be much more expensive and requires a lot more effort (installing the cards, laying cables, etc).
Simply install the ShareISDN Server (SISsetNT.exe for WindowsNT/2000, SISset95.exe for Windows95/98/MI) on the computer with the ISDN-Card. The ShareISDN Client (SICsetup.exe) is put on every computer to access the ISDN-Card of the Server computer.
You can use nearly every application which supports the CAPI 2.0 specification. CAPI 2.0 is the standard programming interface for ISDN-Cards and nearly all ISDN applications support it. For example, the widespreaded Fritz! software is compatible with ShareISDN.
The function of the ShareISDN package is also called "Remote Capi", "Lan Capi" or "Network Capi" to show the special characteristic: the whole Capi-Interface of the ISDN-Card is accessible from the client computers.
ShareISDN is compatible with the Remote Access Service (RAS) so you can make Dial-Up connections to the Internet via ShareISDN.
ShareISDN is currently not the right tool for multiple users accessing ONE SINGLE Internet Dialup connection.
It is possible to build an Internet connection via ShareISDN, but you cannot SHARE it with others. Other users can also use ShareISDN to build up an Internet connection via the same ISDN-Card, but they have to build up an independant Internet Dialup connection.
CapiFax CapiFax is an ISDN-based network fax solution for 2 to 60 connections at one time. Each ISDN MSN/DDI (local number) can be configured for one network client so each workstation has a private number. Terminal server clients are also supported.
CapiDog ISDN monitor program showing busy channels in system tray and pops up a window showing the calling, called and redirecting numbers when a call comes in. Also allows a d-channel trace into a file. Requires an AVM, Gerdes, or Scitel ISDN adapter.
ISDN-Monitor ISDN lines became generally accepted for two reasons as the standard for fixed line connections. First of all, you can use the telephone and internet at once. Secondly - and not insignificantly - it allows caller ID.
SecureCAPI 1.1.0 You can use SecureCAPI to cryptify your ISDN connections. It can be used to secure both voice and data connections. SecureCAPI accesses the driver of any ISDN cards. To build up cryptify connections, both stations have to be equipped with the SecureCAPI. Any commercial available ISDN applications can be used, without any further requirements or special functions.
Phoner Phoner is a free softphone for ISDN and VoIP telephony. An answering machine and Text-To-Speech support complete the large package.
Serial to Ethernet Connector 3.0 This is software-based solution that lets you share up to 255 serial port devices over TCP/IP network. So, any serial port device connected to COM port could be accessed from anywhere as if it is attached to local PC. It provides the ability to create three different types of connection: Port-to-port, Port-to-TCP client and Port-to-TCP server. Serial to Ethernet Connector uses virtual port technology which emulates real serial ports.
Moony Moony is an ISDN call monitor program. which displays a caller's phone number (and name) for incoming calls. Other highlights are telephone answering machine, fax (send and receive), SMS notification and network support.
Advanced Virtual COM Port This is the first software of its kind which includes both local and network virtual COM port
functions. It can share your real COM ports or create virtual COM ports and connect them with a
virtual null-modem cable locally or through the network.
StarPort Windows iSCSI Initiator 3.0.4 This software combined with StarWind iSCSI target running on server allows you to burn to remote CD and DVD burners over the network, backup and restore to remote tape drives, work with remote virtual hard disk drives over the network, backup whole server storage subsystem over the network, work with the dynamic volume snapshots, incremental backups and virtual tapes etc.
daCAPI 2.05 ISDN monitor with call rejects, mail by call, journal, phonebook, invers search. Functions: telephone book with import function, CSV and ISpy, log all calls in journal, mail by call, inverssearch, calls automatically rejects, manual rejecting, quickly overview of all new calls, journal data protection, miscellaneous filters, export as CSV and HTML, automatic looks for updates, sound with call, rejecting and date, call count
Network Serial Port Kit Network Serial Port Kit allows you to connect any serial port devices over TCP/IP network or Internet. Program creates and connects up to 254 virtual serial ports at a time. Physical COM ports can be connected over the network as well.
