Symantec PCANYWHERE - V12.1, Руководство пользователя, Страница: 83 / 321

Symantec pcAnywhere automatically runs all host sessions as a Windows service.
This option lets you take advantage of the inherent security and performance
features of the operating system.
If you want to start a host session in Windows Vista/XP and you are logged on as
a guest user, you have the following options:
■
In Windows, switch to a user account that has administrator rights on the host
computer, and then start the host session in pcAnywhere.
In Windows Vista, the operating system automatically prompts you to provide
administrator credentials before you can run the host as a service.
■
In pcAnywhere, turn off the option to run the host session as a service.
You should not turn off this option if you want to run the host session
unattended in Windows Vista.
To ensure proper functionality, you should log on to your computer as a user with
administrator rights before you start pcAnywhere. For Vista, you can log on to
the computer as a standard user or guest user, however, you will be prompted to
supply the proper credentials when performing certain actions.
Setting end of session options
It is important to securely end sessions to prevent potential security risks.
Normally, a session ends when either the host or remote user cancels the session.
However, network or equipment problems might cause either the host or remote
computer to lose the connection. A connection might also be dropped because of
a security issue, such as an unauthorized user attempting to connect.
Symantec pcAnywhere lets you select different options for handling sessions that
end normally (an authorized user cancels the session) and abnormally (a
connection is unexpectedly lost).
To set end of session options for sessions that end normally
