training software

[BARBARA VICKERY]

Hi all,
I've "lurked" around this amazing List for some time now and learned 
a lot from it. As a source of expertise you lot are obviously at the 
top of the tree !! I'm hoping therefore you will be able to help with 
this one...

I'm interested in finding out if there is anybody who uses existing 
software packages (for Novell networks) for training purposes.The 
kind of situation I envisage is a Master/Slave terminal group whereby
whatever is done on the master terminal will be simultaneously 
displayed on all the slave machines - thus facilitating 
demonstrations etc. The master terminal would then allow "freedom" to 
all slave machines so they could practice on their own with the 
facility for any one machine to call for help from the master 
terminal which could then step in and gain control of that PC in 
order to provide assistance.

I know there is software already in existence which allows one PC to 
control and interract with a number of others but only one at a time. 
It is the element of simultaneous multi control for demonstration 
purposes which I am looking for.

There is a "physical" system (involving cabling up all connected PCs) 
- called "Coursemaster" which does all the above  but a software 
option would not only be cheaper but a lot less cumbersome to 
implement.

Sorry this message is so long !!!Thanks in advance for your help,

Barbara
