pcAnywhere session from inside out 1

[encinitas]

do i need to open up pcAnywhere ports to be able to open a session from inside the firewall going out? (PIX 501)

i have the following config at one site (PIX 501), but i remote into there, not inside out:

access-list outside_access_in permit tcp any host x.229.60.250 eq pcanywhere-data
access-list outside_access_in permit udp any host x.229.60.250 eq pcanywhere-status


thanks

It depends if you have configured an access list on the inside interface on the PIX in question. Try the 'show access-group' command to verify if the inside interface has an access list associated to it.

If it doesn't, great it should just work. If not, you'll have to add the appropriate rules (similar to the ones you've stated) to get the app to work properly.
