Configuring a caller to use Windows-based authentication
Symantec pcAnywhere supports NT and Windows authentication types. These
types of authentication validate a user or group by checking a list that is
maintained on a workstation or shared directory. NT Caller Authentication is
supported on Windows Vista/XP/2003 Server/2000 only.
For more information about setting up Windows NT authentication for global
groups, see the Symantec pcAnywhere Administrator's Guide.

Configuring a caller to use RSA SecurID
RSA SecurID is a type of two-factor authentication. SecurID validates users against
a security code, which is generated by an authenticator and a user-provided PIN.
Symantec pcAnywhere supports SecurID if your network is configured to support
it.
Note: RSA does not work for Vista because the RSA client for Vista is unavailable.
For more information about configuring pcAnywhere to use SecurID, see the
Symantec pcAnywhere Administrator's Guide.
