I have been unable to find any way to programmatically enable ICF on a
network adapter in XP. I have looked at "netsh firewall" but this seems to
be for IPv6 only, and I have had no luck finding a command reference for
enabling thru WMI. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Charles

Hi

You can do it with WMI:

Internet Connection Sharing and Internet Connection Firewall
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...start_page.asp


E.g. here is a VBScript demonstrating how to enable Internet Connection
Firewall
on a connection:

Platform SDK: Internet Connection Sharing and Internet Connection Firewall
Enabling Internet Connection Firewall (VBScript)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en..._vbscript_.asp



Note that when running this script it will pop up a warning box where the user
needs to select between cancel or continue , and it doesn't look like it is
possible to suppress this warning box...

Hello!
Someone know how to configure "services" tab at ICF? I need to disable all
settings there.

By WMI i can configure all tabs and settings except of "services" tab.

So attentatively I record it.
