looking for a replacement to other software

Hello, I have been tasked with finding an alternative to our current and getting very overpriced remote software. what I need to know is it possible to set it up so that I have 5 users that will be allowed to connect only to a specific group of pc's just for them. for example, user 1 has access to everything, user 2 has access to approximately 90% of the systems and user 3 only has access to only 10 systems. the other 2 users are unknown amount of pc's. Is this possible?

I found this on another forum site:

What rights a user has within our software is determined by what rights they have within the O/S security itself. There is no functionality within our software itself to designate levels of access based upon a list of UserIDs. Also, just because a user has our software installed doesn't mean they have any rights to connect to any remote machine using our software. Again, it's based upon what rights they have within the O/S security.

With that being said, there are many ways to restrict access to certain machines:

(1) Defined a Shared Secret password on your machines and only give certain users that password.

(2) Configure IP Filtering within the MRC Client Agent Service.

(3) Restrict access via Local or Global group membership.

(4) Enable the Proprietary Challenge/Response authentication method and create a ficticious UserID and Password. This UserID and Password has nothing to do with your O/S UserID and Password. It's only used to establish a MRC connection for these specific machines.

I hope this helps.
