NetChat is a peer-to-peer local network messaging and communications system for Windows which does not require a server to be running for use.

NetChat will allow you to chat in real-time with other users on a private and secure local network connection.

NetChat provides the instant messaging capabilities of the commercial on-line services, but does not require any Internet access or servers for it to work. NetChat works across an Ethernet network, using the TCP/IP protocol to send and receive data. No server is required as the architecture is completely peer-to-peer, allowing users to communicate directly with one another.

NetChat features
  • Can be used as an electronic office in/out board
    See when other users are in the office and available. Helps keep track of employees in a small office.

  • Safe, Secure and Private Communications
    Using standard protocols, we have devised a closed system of communication within a local network. Even on a local network using private addresses, NetChat can allow users to communication without the threat of incoming data from the real world.

  • Customizable preset text messages
    Version 2.0 allows you to configure preset messages which allows less typing when sending messages.

  • Message logging
    Version 2.5 allows your message history to be saved to a file. This feature is great when you want to refer back to a previous conversation to reference a message.

  • True Peer-to-Peer Networking
    With NetChat, you do not need a dedicated server computer or software to communicate. NetChat operates completely in a peer-to-peer mode, allowing efficient communication directly between users on a network. There is no server, so each message goes directly from sender to receiver, without having to be routed through a central computer on the network.

  • One-on-one network conversations with other users
    Simple, direct network communications that allows one-on-one private instant message communication with another user on your local network. The conversation data can be encrypted, ensuring that even on your local network no one is able to sniff and decipher your private messages.

  • Does not require Outlook components
    NetChat is completely independent of any other software requirements on your PC. The only thing that is needed is a local area network running the TCP/IP protocol.

  • No Direct Internet Connection Required
    NetChat works completely on a local Ethernet network using the TCP/IP protocol. However, it does not need a connection to the Internet. If you do have an Internet connection, NetChat works on your local subnet, so it will not be accessible from the outside world.

  • Easy to Use
    Getting started with NetChat is very easy - just install the software on two or more computers on the same local network and you may begin chatting in real-time with other users.

  • Network requirements
    NetChat uses the TCP/IP protocol and works with fixed or dynamic IP addresses on an Ethernet network. Any Windows 98/ME/2/XP PC with a network card and configured for a local network will be able to run this software. Each computer will be identified to others based on a custom user name from the IP address of each computer. Since no two computers can have identical IP addresses on a network (or subnet), each client is assured to be unique. NetChat can work with network PCs which have fixed (static) or dynamically assigned IP addresses.

    Requirements
  • Network card with TCP/IP protocol on a local network
  • 32MB memory
  • 2MB free hard drive space
  • 800 x 600 - any color depth

    Limitations
  • 30-day trial, nag screen
