I just got in some new Dell Optiplexes preinstalled with Win XP Pro SP2. They are identical. I have joined the computers to the domain. The only software they have installed is ISA Firewall client, Symantec AV, Lotus Notes, Adobe Reader, Windows XP, Office 2003. All of those programs work fine. Computers correctly locate the proxy server, update their definitions, talk to the server, launch lotus notes, etc. But on all of them I keep getting this error en-masse. It appears over and over again, filling up the logs. I know its not a trojan or virus, these are brand new machines. I'd like to keep the XP firewall turned on, if possible. Any help is truly appreciated.

doesn't work, tried it. I opened up a new dell and this time watched the event log with each step. The error message begins filling up the security log the instant I join the computer to the domain.
I power up the new dell with XP SP2. FW turned on. No security messages. Join to domain and they all begin to start. This is before I install a single piece of software
Hi all, I've found this answer in a forum. hope it could be useful.

Hi J,
Just as the post 27753650 Event ID 861 - OUTLOOK11.EXE Firewall issue.
They are all related to Windows Firewall.
For your convenience, I'll pasted as following:
Based on my research, even though Windows XP firewall is "turned off", the
service is still running. If your security auditing policy includes
auditing of failures for "audit process tracking", your security event logs
will be filling up quickly. If you want the events to go away, the only
solutions I have found so far are to turn off the auditing or to stop the
Windows Firewall/ICS service.
To turn off the auditing:
The Default Domain Policy was configured to push the following changes
(Computer
Configuration->Windows Settings->Security Settings->Local Policies/Audit
Policy):
Policy Setting
Audit account logon events Failure
Audit account management Success, Failure
Audit directory service access Failure
Audit logon events Success, Failure
Audit object access Success, Failure
Audit policy change Success, Failure
Audit privilege use Failure
Audit system events Failure
I recommended the following changes:
Policy Setting
Audit policy change Not Defined
Audit privilege use Not Defined
Audit object access Not Defined
To stop the Windows Firewall/ICS service:
Go to Start -> Run -> services.msc. Find Windows Firewall in the list,
double-click on it, set "Startup type" to "Disabled", and press Stop if it
is running.
Please take your time in trying the suggestion. If there is anything
unclear or any other questions about this issue, please feel free to let me
know. I'm looking forward to your reply.
Thanks & Regards

Hi bctek,
If you run Dell OMCC (Dell OpenManage Client Connector (OMCC)), you have to allow remote administration service in firewall.
just type the command below on Command Prompt,
netsh firewall set service RemoteAdmin
Hope this help
