Hi All,
I'm trying to help one of the desktop guys out... and as there are
some
good scripters in here I thought I'd throw this one out on a line
Is there a way to script the opening of ports (incoming) on an XP
firewall? I know it can be done manually
(_http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=308127_), but we'd
like
to link it into a startup script.
... I know it's an awful product and if I had my way I'd get
SecureClient in.
... I also know that XP SP2 has a new firewall but we aren't playing
with
that yet.
BR and Thanks.
Rob
