Symantec pcAnywhere stores these connection settings in a host connection file.
It places the host connection item in the Hosts window. You can use the host
connection item to begin a host session or to modify the connection settings.
Symantec pcAnywhere offers some advanced configuration options that are not
available in the wizard.
