That happened to me yesterday while building a new lab to test the Citrix
Project GoldenGate.  Even though I went and changed all my XenApp VMs from
Public to Work/Private, the Windows Firewall refused to allow ANY traffic
through.  Wound up having to disable the Windows Firewall on my XenApp VMs.

Subject: Weird Windows firewall issue

 

Here's a strange one - I've got a Windows 2008 R2 server that for some
reason has suddenly decided it is connected to a public, rather than a
domain network. Despite the fact that the IP address hasn't changed (it's
statically assigned) and I am logged on with domain credentials - it is
showing as "Connected" to a public network and not surprisingly, the windows
firewall is blocking just about everything, including ICA and RDP traffic,
which is proving to be rather annoying. I thought it was something to do
with the "Network Location Awareness" service, but that is running fine.

Does anyone know how the server determines what sort of network it is
connected to, and how I could maybe convince it of the error of its ways?
