Hello,
My problem is that I cannot control my desktop PC with my laptop.
They are both connected through a LAN cross cable, and more or less
easily recognize each other with Map Network Drive.
I have recently installed Symantec's PCAnywhere on both computers, and
while I'm able to control my laptop with the desktop smoothly, the only
way to do this vice versa (Laptop as the Remote client, Desktop as
server/ host) is by submitting an active "call remote" (or invitation?)
from the desktop to the laptop. It wouldn't recognise it otherwise and
report as "could not find computer".
I have WinXP Home build 2600 on both the desktop and laptop.
Do you think it has to do with activating any service? I tried tweaking
with them and activate services that seemed relevant, but my laptop
will still play "blind" and wont trace the desktop.
BTW: Pinging desktop->laptop works great, under 1 ms, but
laptop->desktop, 4 requests timed out.
Thank you for your help
