Re: Firewall Suggestions "Thomas R Grassi Jr" <thomasgrassi[ at ]hotmail.com> 12/9/2008 7:03:02 PM I appled all the setting and when I turn on windows Firewall my pc's will not access the web They become very sluggest My Computer takes long time My Network Places takes long time Start menu takes long time etc etc etc........ Looks like the Windows Firewall running on my windows 2003 R2 Standard DC server has too many ports blocked. I do not know what ports are opened or blocked on the server I am trying some programs to see if I can figure this out. I would think Microsoft would at least allow computers on/in the same domain to access its own server. Need help Thanks Tom "Kayman" <kayhkay-nospam-[ at ]operamail.com> wrote in message news:9fi3b4vdapw9$.kygg747r7mop$.dlg[ at ]40tude.net...

Re: Firewall Suggestions "Thomas R Grassi Jr" <thomasgrassi[ at ]hotmail.com> 12/11/2008 3:21:32 AM Christoph Thanks for the info I had a copy of the first article I am reviewing the second one What I did to get it to work was I found a program NMAP and installed it on my pc with the windows firewall off I ran a scan of all opened tcp ports. I then added those ports to the Windows Firewall exceptions and now everything is working. I will remove one port at a time over the next few days to see what is required.
