To set up a certificate store
1
In the Symantec pcAnywhere window, in Advanced View, on the Edit menu,
click Preferences.
2
In the pcAnywhere Options window, on the Encryption tab, type the path and
name of the certificate files for any user who will connect to your computer.
The user must provide you with this certificate file.
See “Creating a certificate file to send to another user” on page 217.

Click OK.
Locating certificates and private keys
When the host is configured to run as a service, it is unable to use the private key
data that Windows stores for individual users. You can use the MachKey program
to locate and copy certificates and private keys from the current user's certificate
store to the local computer's certificate store. MachKey is provided with
pcAnywhere.
When you run the Public Key Encryption Wizard after using MachKey, you can
select the certificates that you copied to the local computer's certificate store.
To locate certificates and private keys
1
In Windows Explorer, locate and double-click the following file:
\\Program Files\Symantec\pcAnywhere\MachKey.exe
2
In the MACHKEY Certificate Copy Utility dialog box, under My store, select
the certificates that you want to copy to the local computer's certificate store.
The host computer retrieves the public key from the certificate file on the
remote computer. If the host is configured to run as a service, that certificate
file must be in a location that can be accessed by a service (for example, a
local hard drive).
See “Setting the host startup options” on page 81.
3
Click Copy to Machine Store.
4
Close the MACHKEY Certificate Copy Utility.
Configuring a connection item to use public-key encryption
Public-key encryption requires both the host and remote users to have a digital
certificate issued by a mutually trusted certificate authority. The host and remote
users must set up a connection item file that includes information about the digital
certificate.
