ICFutil not working :(

[Yaron Maor]

Hi,

I'm strugelling with the ICFutil and just can't get it to work. I read all
threads in the NG and add every components mentions.
I also read the two MS articles regarding ICF but none of them helps.
so far I have:

1. Internet Connection Firewall Utility component
2. Internet Connection Sharing and Firewall component
3. Internet Connection Wizard component
4. WMI Core component
5. Connection Manager Runtime (someone said it might be needed)
6. Internet Protocol Network Address Translation (NAT) (I don't really need
it but just in case..)
7. Network Allocation Awareness Service
8. Volume Shadow Copy Service (someone said it is needed for the WMI core)

the results are:
1. icfutil /status gives: "Firewall Manager not available"
2. Internet Connection Sharing and Firewall service can't start trough
services.msc and says one of it's dependencies is missing...
3. control panel- network connections - LAN properties- advanced tab- I get
a WMI error saying something is corrupted and I can't see the FW settings.

I'd really appriciate if there's anyone that succeded would give me some
clue on this.
also, if some of the above components are not needed- please mention,
because every byte counts.

thanks,

YaronM

Are you resolving all your dependencies?

Are you getting this error during FBA and post FBA?

In order for the Firewall to work, your images must have the following
minimum components (which it does) and all of its dependacies
1. Internet Connection Firewall Utility component
2. Internet Connection Sharing and Firewall component (brought in by the ICF
Utility)
3. Internet Connection Wizard component. This component includes the
INetCFG.dll which has the API used by the utility.
4. WMI Core component (depending on your configuration, this component may
increase the footprint size by ~40MB). This component is required to persist
ICF state.

Hi Neil,

I'm now able to start the Service through services.msc (I was missing the
Internet Connection Sharing and Firewall Macro)
but still get the error from ICFutil.exe
my FBA log shows:
8:25:35 AM - [FBALaunch] C:\WINDOWS\ICFUtil.exe /enable /q (ExitCode:
0x80070433)
8:25:35 AM - [FBALaunch] C:\WINDOWS\ICFUtil.exe /q /AddService disable
"Remote Desktop" 3389 3389 localhost TCP (ExitCode: 0x80070433)
8:25:35 AM - [FBALaunch] C:\WINDOWS\ICFUtil.exe /q /AddService disable
"Telnet Service" 23 23 localhost TCP (ExitCode: 0x80070433)

thanks,
