Configuring host logon credentials for remote management Symantec pcAnywhere requires a user name and password for all host sessions. To send a remote management command to one or more computers from pcAnywhere Manager, you must specify the pcAnywhere caller credentials that are needed to log on to the host computer. Symantec pcAnywhere automatically prompts you for this information. The caller logon credentials that you specify in the Remote Management Properties window are sent to each computer that you have selected. If a remote connection item is already configured to send logon credentials automatically, you can configure pcAnywhere to override the preconfigured logon information.
