PC Anywhere is a bloated, festering piece of poodoo that is bolted on
top of windows and does horrid things.

Termainal Services is nicely built right into Windows, comes with, and
is free for remote admin use.  

It's like taking the 12 litre V8 out of your ferrari, and putting in the
engine from a ford pinto.  Sure, it'll still drive, but whats the point?

Give a valid reason to cose PCAnywhere and NOT Terminal Services ?
Even when you will have the packet filters blocking the access from the
oustide, It`s very crazy to have running that on ISA.
(that´s MY opinion)

Hi All

Please don't laugh at this one!!!

Is there a huge security risk in installing PC Anywhere on the ISA
Server
itself so that I can remotely connect to the ISA Server from my INTERNAL
network only?  In fact, I only want to connect from one known IP number
so
that should be even more secure - I hope!


I obviously don't want connections from outside of my network to be
allowed,
but I guess that should be simple to block.

Any comments would be much appreciated.
