Hi Chris!
Just want to update that it's now working! There were
a few issues that contributed to me having so much
trouble.
1) We were running two different broadband suppliers.
One was being phased out while the other was being
phased in. :) So the PCAnywhere system wasn't using
the right Router (don't know if this actually makes
any difference).
2) I was using a my workstation (has PCAnywhere installed)
to log on to the other PCAnywhere station but via the
Internet IP and not the stated local IP. Meaning,
if aa.bb.cc.dd was my given Internet IP, I'd use my
local station to access the aa.bb.cc.dd to access
the PCAnywhere station.
(I know. Stupid, but I needed to test whether or not I could
connect. I know using the actual machine's LAN IP works. I
just didn't know if I could go via the External IP.
ie. MyMachine -> Firewall's Ext IP -> PCAnywhere.)
Anyway, it works. I'm surprised I'm had so much trouble
with this. It seemed pretty straight forward.
Thanks for all the help Chris!
