Re: [FW1] PCAnywhere Problem

[jswensso@FW1-NOSPAMonesecure.com]

I have never had a problem with connecting pcanywhere through fw-1, but have 
had trouble with other firewall/proxy software. I've found that disabling the 
UDP on pcanywhere can help. This is for versions 8.* I havent tried it for 9.

4. To disable the pcANYWHERE32 UDP packets, go to the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\pcANYWHERE\CurrentVersion\System

and add the DWORD value below: 

TCPIPConnectIfUnknown

Set the value of this new entry to 1.

That's on the client side.
