Let's say you are going to deploy this over 100 PC's all
sharing files and printers. By default when you install
the service pack, file and printer sharing are disabled
in the firewall, pings are blocked, our VNC connections
are all denied. To reset all of the settings on evey PC
is going to be a pain. Is there a way to modify any of
this before my SUS push? It's going to be chaos when no
one can print after all of the installs go through. All
of my PC's with network shares are going to choke too.
 
I've only installed to one machine so far, but file sharing still
works and so do ping requests. I can also connect to the MSDE
installation on that machine. Launching Sybase ASA causes the
firewall to prompt you about allowing incoming connections (guess
Microsoft made exceptions for their own software).
 
I'm having the same problem. After the install VNC and DameWare connections
are blocked. It's easy to fix on one PC, but not 100+. We're an NT4 domain
so we're not using Group Policies. Does anyone know of a way to change a
configuration file in the SP source files to tweak the default settings?
