Hi SUS (and it's SP2 deployment) in it self cannot help you with this. If AD, do it with a Group Policy setting. If no AD: Adding the registry values mentioned below will disable the SP2 FW, this can be done either before or after SP2 is installed. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall\DomainProfile \EnableFirewall=0 (DWORD data type) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall\StandardProfile \EnableFirewall=0 (DWORD data type) Those registry values are documented in WF_XPSP2.doc.
