[xtendscott]

What policy and where do I turn off the policy that does not allow users to turn off the firewall in XP?

THanks.

create new policy call it say FW, edit it,computer configerations/network/network connections/windows firewall

lots to set in here but top one disable setting will disable through out domain if set in right area of your policies
hope this helps u

Or manage it from an XPSP2 station.

Thanks schtek,

We had an issue with an application that was being blocked by the firewall by a remote user over a VPN. Internally the Firewall was not effecting the application(strange).

It was great help that I seem to get consistantly around here. Thanks to all.
