asked on

PCAnywhere through network?

Hi!
I would like to know if we can connect from the Internet to a host who is on cable and use a router. The host is a workstation on a network. Is it possible to connect to it? I'm using PCAnywhere 10.0

Thx

  I think you may be able to use VNC as already suggested. This cut is from the faq page at
                 http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/faq.html#q52
 I remember seeing that you can set the port number when configuring VNC on your computer, so do try  it.

                 --------------------------------------------------------
                 Can I run VNC over a port normally used for a standard service? (eg. port 21, or port 80)
                 In rare circumstances, people may want to do this, perhaps because they have a firewall which only allows
                 connections to certain ports. This can be done, at least for the Windows and Unix servers (see their
                 documentation), but the following points need to be borne in mind:
                 On some systems (eg. most forms of Unix), ordinary users are not allowed to run servers on ports below
                 1024.
                 You obviously can't run a VNC server on a port that's already being used for other things.
                 Many VNC servers use two ports: one for the VNC server, and one for the HTTP server that provides the
                 Java applet (see previous question). If you plan to use the Java viewer, you may want to change both.
                 Not all servers will allow this at present.
                 You need to tell the viewer the right display number. Normally, display numbers come between 0 and 99.
                 If you specify any number smaller than 99, the viewers add 5900 to get the port number. If you specify
                 a larger number, the viewers take it as a port number directly. So how do you use port numbers lower
                 than 99? You have to specify a negative display number! For example, to connect to a server running
                 on port 80 on machine 'snoopy':

                 vncviewer snoopy:-5820

                 because -5820 + 5900 = 80. This may not work with all viewers, but Unix and Windows seem to be fine.
-----------------------

I hope this helps !

CHECK THE SYMANTEC site for firewall and pcanywhere to get the ports you need.

I hope this helps !

Ok, i found the port 22.
I enable it on my Virtual Server setting and forward to the ip address of the workstation that has the Host of PcAnywhere. But i think that you loose the internet connection eh?

Is it hard to set VNC?

pcanywhere
pcAnywhere uses either of two sets of ports depending on the version of pcAnywhere you are using. One
set uses ports 65301 and 22. The second set uses the registered ports 5631 and 5632.

2.0 tcp 65301 udp 22
7.0 tcp 65301 udp 22
7.50 tcp 65301 udp 22
7.51 tcp 65301 udp 22
CE tcp 65301 udp 22
7.52 tcp 5631 udp 5632
8.x tcp 5631 udp 5632
9.0 tcp 5631 udp 5632
9.2 tcp 5631 udp 5632
BTW, you can also use WebEX to do almost the same thing.
