MS Server 2003 PC Anywhere Gateway
I'm using PC Anywhere on clients in a Microsoft Server 2003 LAN. I set up the gateway so that users could get into their desktops from the Internet. The PcAnywhere Gateway software WAS on a client which was not part of MS Server 2003 environment. I'm using a Linksys Router and configured the ports to allow the gateway pc (static IP) to get it's traffic (TCP/UDP Port 5631-5632). All worked nicely. THEN, I made the Gateway PC part of the MS Server 2003 environment. Now the PCAnywhere Remote Clients cannot see the Gateway to get into their computers in the MS Server LAN. I assume the Server is blocking it.
What do I have to do to get this thing working?
(Step by step would help)
Thanks

It's not possible to make all compauters - laptops part of the domain hence the PC Anywhere solution.
I've just bought a Gateway PC and set it up as before - all working happily now.
Thanks for the response.

Why, because you are using XP Home as an operating system? If you think that's saving you money, then you don't quite understand the value of centralized management and being able to control security on your network.
But if that's what you want to do... have fun with it. You're taking a perfectly wonderful operating system (SBS) that has been designed to save you lots of money and effort and are pretty much tossing out one of it's primary benefits.

This is a temporary solution which saved me a LOT of time.
I ran in to a bug, asked a question, didn't get and answer, worked around it, resolved my problem.
The setup will be dismantled in a couple of weeks anyway.
I am using remote management through SBS and have been for a long time even though I don't understand the value of centralized management and being able to control security on my network evidentially.
