Host Administrator (addendum to the pcAnywhere Administrator's Guide)
======================================================================

The configuration steps for Host Administrator have changed in this 
version of pcAnywhere.  The Host Administrator now requires you to 
pre-configure the Admin host and remote objects before using them. 
After configuring the objects, you can distribute the admin host 
object to the host system through Host Administrator, or you can 
include the admin host object in a package. This section outlines the 
new configuration steps for setting up the Host Administrator and 
manageable hosts.

A default set of object templates are provided in the CMS folder, 
located inside the pcAnywhere folder. The files Admin.BHF and 
Admin11.CHF are used by Host Administrator to control a host system. 
You may copy these files from the CMS folder to your data folder and 
modify them to fit your current needs, or you can create new admin 
host and remote objects.

Creating a new admin remote object:
-----------------------------------
1. From the pcAnywhere Manager, select "Add Remote".
2. In the "Connection Info" tab, check and configure your desired 
   network protocol.
3. Configure any other options for the remote that you may need and 
   select "OK".
4. Name the remote object "Admin11".

Creating a new admin host object: 
---------------------------------
1. From pcAnywhere Manager, select "Add Host".
2. In the "Connection Info" tab, check and configure your desired

   run if there are no callers defined.
4. Configure any other options for the host that you may need and 
   select "OK". 
5. Name the host object "Admin".

Including the admin host object in a package:

   build the package.

   systems that you want to control into "Systems".
