is there a pcanywhere client for linux?
 
Tired of having to get upset at windows, suffering hangs and delays of unproductivity and having to resort to vodoo informatics (waving a mouse at it, chanting to make it work and wish this intransparent and unprofessional event viewer to hell) I just switched my job workstation to linux and happily found a linux replacement for anything:

lotus notes (over wine)
office (over wine)
citrix
cisco vpn
remote desktop (I get the feeling that it works better than on windows ;-)

so far smooth sailing...

...BUT, and now there is this but: is there a pcanywhere client for linux? I need to control a server from my workstation that is windows and only uses pcanywhere on it, no way to use vnc there.
Or do I have to use vmware to run it (yuck)?

thanks

Markus

pcAnywhere has a web remote capability on the host. If that's enabled, you can use any Java capable browser, including those on Linux, as a client.

Well, that would explain why there is no direct client for linux.

Thanks, I'll try that out.

Cheers
