Product
Information

Exceed (vendor: Hummingbird) is a Windows application that emulates an X-terminal. It allows you to connect to a Unix host and establish an X-terminal session. All applications on the host that use the X11R6 protocol will then display their output on your local display. Installation creates a Program Group named 'Hummingbird Connectivity v12.0.' You can customize the software and create icons for specific X sessions using the 'Xstart' and/or 'Xsession' icons.

Version 2007 has an "Exceed 3D" component which is not installed by default.

An SSH component called Connectivity Secure Shell (CSS) allows Exceed connectivity through an ssh connection directly, rather than through 'rexec' or 'rsh'. A slight configuration is required for each unix host to which you will connect. See 'Getting Started' below.

Version 2007 requires selecting 'complete install' to load the Inetd services.
