PC Anywhere and security

["martin samson" <martcci () hotmail com>]

Hi group,

We used to have PC Anywhere (long long time ago...in the 80's) as a remote 
support system. We've moved away from it and now a supplier wants to connect 
to his box with it.  What position should the server be to be secure 
(network, DMZ, special zone)?

Can you give me an idea on how secure are the last versions of PC Anywhere?

Can a PC Anywhere connection give them access to our network even if the 
user credential limits the rights to specific directories on his machine ???

Thanks!

Marty
