Configuring deployment security options for Linux and Mac
OS X
Symantec pcAnywhere uses Secure Shell™ (SSH™) to deploy the pcAnywhere host
for Linux and Mac OS X and to secure user credentials for authentication during
the deployment. Symantec pcAnywhere supports SSH Version 1 and Version 2.
Symantec pcAnywhere first attempts to use SSH Version 2 to encrypt the
deployment of the host. If the host computer does not support SSH Version 2,
pcAnywhere then attempts to use SSH Version 1. You can configure pcAnywhere
not to use SSH Version 1 when you configure the deployment security options
for Linux and Mac OS X.
If the host computer does not support any version of SSH, you can use Telnet to
deploy the host. If you configure pcAnywhere to use Telnet, you can also configure
pcAnywhere to display a confirmation prompt before sending the user credentials.
This prompt notifies you when pcAnywhere is using Telnet to deploy the host.
