Not to get arsy, but this doesn't have anything to do with ColdFusion, so I don't think Dylan was trying to be arsy. Personally, I don't mind if the lists cover other things once in a while. However, if you post something that's off-topic, you can't very well be surprised if you get an off-topic response. > I am remotely administering the machine, so this type of > isolation would mean a physical trip to the machine, which I > really do not want to do. I haven't seen any host-based firewall products which would let you do this. If all you want to do is allow and disallow access to specific ports, you might look at using the native functionality in Windows 2000 for this. You can get at this functionality through the Local Security Settings tool in the Administrative Tools folder on the Start menu. It's a terrible interface, but it lets you set ingress/egress rules or IPsec requirements once you've figured out the interface. There was a good tutorial somewhere on Securityfocus. Of course, if you want anything beyond those sorts of rules, such as content filtering or logging, you'll need a separate firewall package.
