Symbio Releases Symbiont Management Suite 4
The Symbiont Management Suite 4 makes it easier than ever to set-up, configure, and manage a server-centric network comprised of low-powered, long-lived desktop workstation units while controlling user activities
Fully-compatible with LTSP, the Symbiont Management Suite 4 is supported by the Symbiont Certification Program, the only training and testing standards for LTSP users and administrators.

Other new features and benefits on Suite 4 include:
- Message-sending from the Administrator, system-wide or to any unit on the network;
- Storage media that can be plugged into the client and then removed for portability and security;
- Sessions and Screens, supporting X, Windows Terminal Services (RDP), Telnet, Citrix and other terminal emulators, with a maximum of three screens defined;

- Power-Up and Power-Down capability from the Workstation Status Page;
- Workstation Grouping, organized into Administrator-defined categories;
- Enhanced Subnet Control, the ability to view and modify the settings of network interface cards, and an
- Overall Updated Look and Feel, including a new color scheme, intuitive layout and new graphics.
The Symbiont Management Suite 4 is available to and through the company's international network of VARs, who provide installation and support services, as well as Symbio Technologies' own diskless thin clients.
