Re: New Computer on Domain cannot connect to Internet

What I am confused about though is that the Firewall was off to start with
and is now on. But surely this would not stop internet access??

Additionaly, If you have Group Policies defined then check this :

Click Start, Run and type Gpedit.msc
Navigate to the following branch:
Computer Configuration
=> Administrative Templates
==> Network
===> Network Connections
====> Windows Firewall
=====> Standard Profile

Set the following options to Not Configured (defaults)
Windows Firewall: Protect all network connections
Windows Firewall: Do not allow exceptions
Windows Firewall: Define program exceptions
Windows Firewall: Allow local program exceptions
Windows Firewall: Allow remote administration exception
Windows Firewall: Allow file and printer sharing exception
Windows Firewall: Allow ICMP exceptions
Windows Firewall: Allow Remote Desktop exception
Windows Firewall: Allow UPnP framework exception
Windows Firewall: Prohibit notifications
Windows Firewall: Allow logging
Windows Firewall: Prohibit unicast response to multicast or broadcast
requests

Exit Group Policy editor.

Run these command and Check the reply

Netsh firewall show state
Netsh firewall show config

Additionaly, I assume you don't have anti-virus software installed , and if
you have then disable it to check if it's culprit.

As said in my previous post, I had tried as both administrator and user.
Neither gave me the option to turn it off. The box was greyed out.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Yes, you should be an administrator

Actually taking a 2nd look, I am now unable to access the firewall controls.
Whether logged on as a user or administrator I am unable to turn off the
Firewall. Any ideas?!

Hi All,
I have just started the administration for a new company and have took over
the old regime's system.
I have replaced an old 98 computer with a new XP one. I have connected this
to the domain (Server 2003 local domain) just fine and everything works
except internet connection. They do not use any proxy's or anything so am
stumped as to why this one PC will not connect and all the others on site
will.
All settings appear to be the same as the others.
Any ideas?
.
