to symmetric. When you connect to a host that is running an earlier version of
pcAnywhere, you can deny the connection if the host is configured to use a lower
level of encryption.
The type of symmetric encryption that Java uses is not compatible with earlier
versions of Symantec pcAnywhere hosts. Therefore, the Web Remote does not
support connections to host computers that are running pcAnywhere 11.0.x or
earlier when both the Web Remote and host computers are configured for
symmetric encryption.
If you want to use symmetric encryption during a Web Remote session with a host
computer that is running pcAnywhere 11.0.x or earlier, you can do any of the
following:
■
Upgrade the host computer to the most current version of Symantec
pcAnywhere, and then configure either computer for symmetric encryption.
■
Change the encryption level on the host to pcAnywhere encoding or none. You
must configure the encryption level in Web Remote to symmetric. The Web
Remote raises the encryption level on the host and transmits the session data
using symmetric encryption.
If you are unable to modify the host configuration, an alternative is to use
pcAnywhere encoding. You do this by lowering the encryption level in the Web
Remote to pcAnywhere encoding.
Configuring session encryption
You can select the encryption level, algorithm type, and key length that best suits
your needs.
To configure session encryption
1
In the Symantec pcAnywhere Web Remote window, click Advanced.
2
In the Advanced Options window, under Encryption, in the Level list, select
one of the following:
■
None
■
pcAnywhere Encoding
■
Symmetric
The Web Remote does not support connections to hosts that are running
pcAnywhere 11.0.x or earlier when both the Web Remote and host
computers are configured for symmetric encryption.
See “How the Web Remote works with differing encryption levels”
