Re: Turning off firewall on sp2 xp clients ?

If you are using group policy, you can change some settings there. It saves you having to go to each workstation and doing it manually.

Hi, pulling my hair out here. I'm testing a server and client setup with AVG network edition. How do I turn off the firewall on the client PC (xp sp2 - it's greyed out even when logging in locally) This is a new test install and I don't think I have set anything daft.
thanks simon
