Hi,

I have a remote site with clients running XP SP1 in an W2k AD evironment.

Some of the users have their XP firewall turned on, which makes remote
management and log collecting impossible for me.

Is there a registry value that I can import that will disable this? I know
SP2 makes it a lot more easy to manage the firewall, but thats not happening
right now.

Thanks!

Hi

No registry value exist for this (for SP2 it does), but there is a
Group Policy setting available that will disable the SP1 firewall.
