I am running PCAnywhere with two XP and 1 Win 2K machine PCAW v 10 and 11
with no issues and XP SP 2 is on the machines. I have one PFW - BlackIce
running on the XP laptop which has a rule to accept any IP(s) issued by the
DHCP server on the home network. I think unless you have disabled the XP
SP2 FW which is enabled by default on the NIC when SP 2 is installed, then
PCAW is going to be blocked by XP's SP 2 FW. That's the only thing that can
be happening is the XP's FW is enabled on the NIC's and is blocking unless
you disable it or you have set rules on the FW to allow tafiic on the PCAW
port.
