Re: WinXP SP2 Firewall Setting

Jay

you have to select the domain profile or the standard... domain in when
physically plugged into your network and standard is for if it's a laptop
and it boots off the network...

within the profiles you may define the port exceptions.

you also must open a group policy editor through a MMC console on a win XP
sp2 machine!

good luck
