RPC (Remote Procedure Calls)

RPC technology allows you to run separate processes of a program on different computers.

Compared to true full-control programs, such as PC-DUO or PC-ANYWHERE, the amount of transferred data is considerably lower. Processes started from a remote computer run almost without any time delay. It is not possible for the user to determine whether the process is performed on the local PC or on a remote PC.

RPC requires a network connection between the involved computers. It is not import whether the computers are part of the same  Network or whether they are linked via a modem connection. Communication also works between different networks (Novell, Windows) if the networks use a common protocol for communication.

Chromeleon generally communicates via the IPX/SPX, TCP/IP, or NetBEUI network protocols. The Named Pipes protocol can be used, as well.
