We have a workstation that uses Remote Desktop to connect to a remote site so the user can use her computer there. I've allowed the RDP protocol in the
rules seciton of ISA 2004, sp1 but I'd like to make it so this is the only
workstation that is allowed to make this connection.
I've read about creating the "applicaton.ini" in the firewall folder in the
user's profile on her Windows XP Pro workstation in order to modify the
applications the firewall client will allow to pass. I created the .ini file
in Notepad on the workstation but it didn't work. What's more, the file
actually was removed, I'm assuming, by the firewall client when I did a
refresh of the client and tried to use Remote Desktop again. One minute it
was there in the user's profile, the next it was nowhere to be found.
How do you create and format the application.ini file with the name of
whatever application you want to use? And why did the file I created
disappear?
