| 456778 | 2006-05-22 05:05:00 | Hi I'd like to know if it's possible to use a specific NIC with pcAnywhere on a REMOTE PC (ie the "controller" one). Looking through the documentation and the knowledge base, I see that it is possible to choose the network card that a host connection should "listen" on for incoming calls. However, this option does not seem to be available for a remote connection going OUT. I have a PC with two NICs. One network card connects to the corporate domain. The other network card connects to a small private "lab" network for testing purposes. The corporate domain does not allow any pcAnywhere traffic through the proxy/firewall to the internet. The small private "lab" network has an ADSL router that connects to the internet. How do I make pcAnywhere connections use the NIC connected to the private LAN so they can connect to hosts on the internet via the ADSL router? |

| 456780 | 2006-05-22 22:13:00 | @Speedy Gonzales Thanks for the reply. As I said in my post, there is plenty of info available online regarding choosing between different NICs installed on the HOST PC. In fact, as of version 10.0, you don't even need to delve into the registry... However, I want to choose between different NICs installed on the REMOTE (ie "controller") PC. There is no such GUI option to choose between NICs as there is at the HOST end, and I have looked at the registry, and they key structure is completely different for REMOTE options compared to the HOST options. A lot of the settings for HOST TCP/IP in the registry that are referenced from the Symantec knowledge base etc are completely missing from the corresponding REMOTE section. I think it's very unlikely that simply adding them in would allow the same functionality. Does anyone know of any (preferably free) filtering software (for WinXP) that lets you direct IP traffic to different NICs, based on what IP address or ports the traffic is destined for? |

| 456781 | 2006-05-22 23:29:00 | You could put a static route in the routing table on the remote PC. Open a command prompt and type in route to get the help. |
