Connecting with RDP
pcAnywhere Solution supports VNC connections and RDP connections from its
remote control Web pages. For the remote computers that are running Windows
or Linux, you can choose to connect to host computers using either technology.

You can install Virtual Network Computing (VNC) on your remote computer and
then use it to connect to a host computer. pcAnywhere Solution supports VNC
connections from Windows and Linux remote computers.
You must install the VNC server to run on port 5800. pcAnywhere supports VNC
connections only if the VNC server is running on port 5800.
By default, a VNC server listens for connections from a Web browser on TCP port
5800. If you point a Web browser to this port, the VNC server automatically
provides a Java VNC viewer that runs in your Web browser. This Java Viewer
exchanges data with the VNC Server on the same ports that a normal VNC viewer
uses.
