I wonder if there is a canned Group Policy template we could download that
contains the best settings for Windows Firewall that applies to the internal
computers to allow stuff like RDP, Mapped drive, Print Sharing, etc. to meet
your needs, but then also use the more locked down settings for it when it
leaves the network as a laptop would do.

Subject: XP Workstation - Windows Firewall Settings in a domain

I would love to hear some thoughts on the use of Windows Firewall in a
Domain Setting. I have never been a fan of the product as I feel it causes
more issues than it solves. I don't use it on my Personal computer or laptop
either. If a company has a properly configured firewall, and properly
installed and configured Enterprise level AntiVirus, is there really a
point.

I am asking because I am consulting for a client that has it running on
their network. I have always disabled it, and need to provide some
justification to them either way.

TIA,
Aci
