pcANYWHERE Network Customization Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to control how Norton pcANYWHERE operates on a network when multiple users access the same copy of the program.

Data Files

Use these options to specify whether user data files are personal or shared. Personal files are created and accessed by a single user. Shared files are created by the network administrator and accessed by multiple users.

Hardware Configurations - Stores the hardware configurations that describe network station hardware. Normally, hardware configuration information is entered at the network station according to available hardware and user requirements. If you want to establish a set of hardware configurations to be used by all network pcANYWHERE users, make this a shared file.

Caller Information - Contains Remote Caller Information. Make this a shared file if you want to control which Remote callers connect with your network users.

Directory of Host PC's - Contains information about pcANYWHERE Host computers with which your network users can connect. Make this a shared file if you want to limit the Hosts your users can call.

Directory of Online Services - Contains information about Online Services with which your network users can connect. Make this a shared file if you want to limit the Online Services your users can call.

Data File Paths

Use these options to specify the directories in which pcANYWHERE data files and license files are stored.

Personal Files - These files must be stored in a network directory to which all pcANYWHERE users have read and write access. To identify personal files pcANYWHERE uses the individual ID entered by the user when they first run pcANYWHERE from a network station.

Shared Files - These files must be stored in a network directory to which all pcANYWHERE users have read access only. Only the network administrator should have read and write access to the shared file directory.

Licensed Files - These files must be stored in a network directory to which all pcANYWHERE users have read and write access. The default directory is a directory off the main pcANYWHERE directory.

Allow 'AW=' environment string to override the personal path.

Lets individual users override the path set for personal data files. See the Norton pcANYWHERE User's Guide for more information.
