X-NetStat features a built-in web server that lets you view your connections from a web browser. 

To configure the Remote Access server, click Remote Access while in Options:

Enable X-NetStat Server – Turns the server on or off.

Port to Use – The port on your computer that the server will use.

Include Net Stats – Include information from the Net Stats window in the HTML report.

AutoRefresh – Includes a META Refresh tag so the page is reloaded every few seconds.

Authentication required – Password protects access to the X-NetStat server. You must know the password in order to view the report.

URLs – Shows the URLs to access the X-NetStat server. Note that the top URL shows the NetBIOS name and will only be accessible from Microsoft-based networks.

 

Access the XNS Server via the status bar

When running, the X-NetStat server will stay in the background. You can see the server status on the status bar.

When someone makes a request to the XNS Server, it will appear in the leftmost panel of the status bar (The main status text). The status of the server can also be seen by looking at the server icon.

XNS Server Status Window

Server activity is logged in this window. A GET message means someone has tried to connect to the server. A subsequent >> Sent message means the user was authorized and the report was sent.

To close the window, hit ESC or close with the X button. If you want to stop the server, click Stop Server.

To show the current report, click Show Report.

 

Someone who successfully accesses the server will see a report like this.
