I would like to establish a pcAnywhere host inside my home network. I have set up such connections at work before, but we have a router there where you can set up a DMZ host. I do not have a router in my home network.
I'm running a cable connection into a computer with 2 NICs. The first NIC is connected to the cable modem. The 2nd NIC is connected to my hub. I have my network set up so the NIC connected to my cable modem is not set up with file & printer sharing, the 2nd NIC is for my LAN and to give better security.
What I want to do is set up a pcAnywhere connection on my upstairs computer, which has only one ethernet connection - to the hub. That computer has an IP address in my LAN at home, but to the internet, it doesn't.
How would I set up a pcAnywhere connection that would be able to tap into that computer? I guess I would have to piggyback the connection across both NICs, which is what happens to internet traffic. But how?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated,
Ian
