Change out your pcAnywhere for Virtual Network Computing (VNC).  It's a 
similar product, comes on Linux distributions and has PC versions.  
There's a Mac version tough I have had no success with it (non OS/X 
platforms). 

Loose the Front Page stuff.  There are plenty of great apps for web 
development under Linux.  I've adopted Plain Black Software's WebGUI as 
my only package I use on top of Apache.  I converted a client off Front 
Page onto WebGUI.  They had 7500 "products" on their FP based web site.  
The prices on it were always out of date and it was a nightmare to 
maintain.  WebGUI is based on MySQL so I take the client's 260,000 items 
from their proprietary based system, import them into MySQL and display 
easily under WebGUI.  Pricing always up to date.
