Role-based security
Role-based administration and security are provided on two levels with
pcAnywhere Solution.
The administrator can decide which roles have access to pcAnywhere Solution
by configuring those roles in the Symantec Management Console. You can choose
which roles have the ability to launch remote control sessions.
The administrator who configures the remote control clients can choose which
remote control privileges are available to specified Active Directory users or other
users. These choices are made when the host authentication is configured.
Scope-based administration is controlled through the Symantec Management
Console.
