About pcAnywhere Solution

Symantec pcAnywhere Solution provides secure, remote access to computers and

servers. This remote access lets you quickly resolve help desk and server support

issues or stay productive while you work away from your office. You can use your

desktop computer or laptop to work across multiple platforms, including the

Windows OS, Linux OS, and Macintosh OS.

Connectivity features help facilitate connections through firewalls, routers, and

other types of network address translation (NAT) devices. Robust security features

help protect your computers and servers from unauthorized access.

You can use pcAnywhere Solution in the following ways:

pcAnywhere Solution lets help desk providers and

administrators troubleshoot and quickly resolve computer

problems. You can remotely perform diagnostics, check and

modify settings, and deploy and install software.

See “Running a remote control session”on page 16.

Manage computers

remotely

Chapter

pcAnywhere Solution lets administrators connect to servers

across their organizations to perform routine maintenance.

It also helps administrators deploy and install software

patches and upgrades, assess performance, and troubleshoot

network problems.

See “Starting a remote control session”on page 20.

Support and maintain

servers

pcAnywhere Solution lets you connect to your home computer

or office computer to quickly get the files that you need. You

can perform automatic file transfers from one computer to

another or exchange multimedia and other files that are too

large to send by email.

See “File transfer options”on page 31.

Transfer files between

computers

pcAnywhere Solution lets you remotely connect to another

computer. You can then work as though you are sitting in

front of that computer. You can view and edit files, run

software, print files to a printer at your location or at the

host’s location, or give demonstrations.

See “Remote control options”on page 24.

Work from a remote

location

How pcAnywhere Solution works

Symantec pcAnywhere Solution uses remote control technology. You can then

connect to another computer or server and work as though you are sitting in front

of it. pcAnywhere Solution supports network connections over a local area network

(LAN), wide area network (WAN), or the Internet.

See “Running a remote control session”on page 16.

It might be helpful to understand some pcAnywhere terminology. For example,

the client computer is called the host computer because it hosts the connection.

The administrator’s computer is called the remote computer or the console. This

terminology comes from mainframe computing, where a remote user usually

connected to a server or a mainframe computer. In pcAnywhere, the in-session

frame is called the viewer.

In most cases, a remote user initiates the connection. They provide the information

that is needed to connect to the host computer. The remote user can also select

options to increase security or optimize performance. To make a connection, the

host computer must be set up to wait for incoming pcAnywhere Solution

connections.

pcAnywhere Solution includes the pcAnywhere Web parts for configuration,

Notification Server reports, the pcAnywhere Manager interface, and the
