to load on Windows startup in Listening mode - this will ensure
that SpyAnywhere is always running!

2. How do I access SpyAnywhere on the remote
PC? |
Simply point your browser to http://remote_ip or
http://workstation_name (where remote_ip is replaced by the actual
IP of the remote computer, and workstation_name would be the
workstation name of the remote computer) and enter your
SpyAnywhere password in the login area. Once logged in you will
have full access to the remote PC!

3. How secure is SpyAnywhere? |
SpyAnywhere is secure as you want it to be.
SpyAnywhere can be configured to filter IP addresses so only
certain IP addresses are allowed access to SpyAnywhere. Make sure
you choose a unique IP address for SpyAnywhere as well! You can
choose to limit access as well to SpyAnywhere by disabling
features that you do not want to be used remotely - such as remote
file system browsing.

4. What is the minimum configuration that is
able to run SpyAnywhere? |
All you need for SpyAnywhere is a Windows machine.
It does not require a web server, since SpyAnywhere is its own
HTTP server. The only thing you need to have running on the
machine is TCP/IP.

5. How do I get the IP address of the PC if it
is on dialup, or if the IP changes regularly? |
You can configure SpyAnywhere to deliver the IP
address via email every time the IP changes - just use the IP
Delivery Via Email feature!

6. Who will have access to SpyAnywhere? |
The only user that will have access to the
SpyAnywhere software, locally or remotely, is you - or whoever you
give the access password and ip address to. SpyAnywhere cannot be
terminated locally without your administrator password. You can
also configure SpyAnywhere so only certain IP addresses can access
the server.

7. How do I access my remote PC if it is behind
a firewall? |
The easiest way to access a computer that is
protected by a firewall is to map one of the firewall's ports to
SpyAnywhere's port (default is port 80).
For example:
FIREWALL IP address: 172.120.0.1
SpyAnywhere machine: IP address: 172.120.0.10, Port: 1000
In this case, you should pick a port on the firewall (say, 4000)
and map it to 172.120.0.10:1000
Having done the above, you will be able to access the computer
with the URL http://172.120.0.1:4000

8. How do I access my remote PC if it is on a
network? |
If the remote computer is on a network, and
SpyAnywhere is already installed, you can either access it
externally from the network, or locally on the network. If you are
on the same network, then just enter in http://workstation_name,
or http://ip_address into your browser to view the computer.
However, if you are outside of the network you will have to enable
port forwarding on the network router to let you access the
machine. Please see Question 7 above for more
information on port forwarding.

9.
I always get a "cannot find
server" error when trying to access SpyAnywhere! |
This could happen for a few reasons.
- The SpyAnywhere server is not running - confirm it is
running in listening mode on the computer you want to access.
- The IP or computer name you are using is incorrect.
- You are using the external IP for the computer, but it is on
a network and you do not have port forwarding enabled (see
questions 7 and 8 above)
- You are using the internal IP (network IP) for the computer,
when you should be using the external (make sure port forwarding
is enabled)
