catman915 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I've been unable to find a method that will prevent the installation/activation of windows firewall in my UA install. I've tried the"[WindowsFirewall]Profiles = WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall[WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall]Mode = 0"approach in my winnt.sif file and it doesn't work. The problem is that when zonealarm installs the firewall blocks a part of it requiring intervention. My goal is to wind up with zonealarm installed and windows firewall either not installed or deactivated without having to address the popup from windows firewall. Would appreciate any assistance.

Noise Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 That works for me...You can try disabling the windows firewall service in your cmdlines.txt file:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SharedAccess]"Start"=dword:00000004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I would also disable the windowsfirewall service, however i would use the key out of CurrentControlSet as the those with 001 & 002 are used for repair/recovery if a login doesn't happen.Both that in the winnt.sif & regkey applied at cmdlines.txt do work very well.

catman915 Posted April 20, 2006 Author Share Posted April 20, 2006 Thanks nois3 and oioldman. oioldman I'm not to swift at this yet. Do you have the code required to implement and where it goes? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 with regards the winnt.sif addition, you have that in you original post, i normally add towards the end of the file.[WindowsFirewall]Profiles = WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall[WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall]Mode = 0and the reg key isWindows Registry Editor Version 5.00; Disable Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) Service[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess]"Start"=dword:00000004This i add to my regtweaks.reg file and is called from cmdlines.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
