Firewall Exception

[t3c]

Hi,

im currently messing with my unattended.xml trying to do a firewall exception for remote desktop.

This the main part (i think) that should be interesting:

		<component name="Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-LocalSessionManager" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS">
			<fDenyTSConnections>false</fDenyTSConnections>
		</component>
		<component name="Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-RDP-WinStationExtensions" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS">
			<UserAuthentication>0</UserAuthentication>
		</component>
		<component name="Networking-MPSSVC-Svc" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS">
			<FirewallGroups>
				<FirewallGroup>
					<Active>true</Active>
					<Group>Remote Desktop</Group>
					<Profile>all</Profile>
				</FirewallGroup>
			</FirewallGroups>
			<RunSynchronous>
				<RunSynchronousCommand>
					<Path> netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="RemoteDesktop" protocol=TCP dir=in localport=3389 action=allow</Path>
					<Description>Enable Remote Desktop</Description>
					<Order>1</Order>
				</RunSynchronousCommand>
			</RunSynchronous>
		</component>

The installation is running fine but there is no exception for the remote desktop.

Any ideas?

greetings,

You are missing the action in FirewallGroups. It should be:

<FirewallGroups>

<FirewallGroup wcm:action="add" wcm:keyValue="RemoteDesktop">

<Active>true</Active>

<Group>Remote Desktop</Group>

<Profile>all</Profile>

</FirewallGroup>

</FirewallGroups>

Thank you for you answer leen2, but if i add the wcm:action part and view the unattend.xml in IE it says that it finished successfully but there was an error with a Resource at the Firewall Group line. When i try to install it my DXUnion crashes because of my broken unattend.xml file.
