Firewall GPO settings
On an SBS 2008 SP2 domain I have a Firewall GPO to turn off the firewall on the workstations NICs. It doesn't seem to be getting applied and I can't figure out why. I ran a RSOP for specific computer and user combination and under Windows Firewall with Advanced Security for the Domain, Public and Private Profiles the Firewall State was "Disabled". I logged into the computer as the user and the firewall is turned on.
Is there somewhere else in GP to set the firewall state for the NIC?

OK, and have you configured this same policy on the "Domain Profile" too ?
Could you tell us exactly which parameters you have already configured please ?

I still haven't figured this out. I am moving this week and will have to wait to address it after getting settled. Too much going on right now. Thanks for the help though.

Under Security Filtering on the GPO is "Domain Computers", which contains the computers on our domain. Is that what you're asking?
Which OS versions are on the scope of the GP? XP SP3
Yes, the settings you asked about are Disabled.
