Bad boy Warrior Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 (edited) I have a strange problem here. A bit of a background: 10 PCs joined to a domain no DHCP (router handles it) with each of the 10 PCs having a STATIC IP address then in DNS has a forward and reverse lookup with the static IP address respectively.I configured a firewall policy which ive done before but when i apply it it doesnt allow me to use File and print or ping. I have set the access level to * (so any pc can connect) and configured ICMP to allow ping requests. Enabled the firewall log and it shows that its dropped the connection. When i turn it off its all fine.Im sure its set up correctly as ive done it before but anyone know how i can pin point to where the problem could be?Thanksjpeg included to show the overview of my policy Edited February 13, 2007 by Bad boy Warrior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Are you sure it's applying the domain policy, and not the standard policy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad boy Warrior Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Are you sure it's applying the domain policy, and not the standard policy?Yes definately sure that domain policy is applied as standard is "not configured". The strange thing is the policy is applied as when i check the firewall settings i see File and Print sharing ticked on the PC. But when i try to get access to that PC via IP or name it doesnt allow me (neither can i ping) but soon as i turn off the FW service it all works.

Bad boy Warrior Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Sorted it!! in a nutshell apply two security updates KB 872769 and 842933 (info: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/872769) i did forget to mention that this was tested on a SBS system which i didnt think it owuld have made this difference.... :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
