Configure Multicast Send and Receive Buffers (pcAnywhere) (All Windows)
Category: Home > Software > pcAnywhere

These registry items set the number of receive and send buffers when using an error correction multicast session. For slow remotes, a larger value may lead to less data loss.

Open your registry and find the key below.

Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value called 'TCPIPMcastHostNumRecvBuf, TCPIPMcastHostNumSendBuf, TCPIPMcastRemNumRecvBuf, TCPIPMcastRemNumSendBuf' using the settings below.

Exit your registry, you may need to restart or log out of Windows for the change to take effect.

Settings:
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\pcANYWHERE\CurrentVersion\System]
Name: TCPIPMcastHostNumRecvBuf, TCPIPMcastHostNumSendBuf, TCPIPMcastRemNumRecvBuf, TCPIPMcastRemNumSendBuf
Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)

Disclaimer: Modifying the registry can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. We cannot guarantee that problems resulting from modifications to the registry can be solved. Use the information provided at your own risk.
