Can't you just disable Win Firewall for that NIC entirely? If it's just a crossover cable to a storage appliance, it's not like there's much danger of unwanted traffic. It might even help performance (I dunno if there's a significant difference in speed between "firewalled 'Private'" and "firewall disabled", but there conceivably could be.) -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
