Installing XP SP2 with firewall disabled by default 1

[member 141630]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a command line option to allow XP SP2 to be installed without the firewall being enabled by default?

I remote manage a large network of PCs all over the UK, and if I install XP SP2 the XP firewall kicks in by default which prevents remote connections, thus I can't remote manage them anymore.

When I refer to installing XP SP2 I'm referring to using the full XP SP2 offline copy and not using windowsupdate.

Best Regards

Phil B
