Hi, <br />
<br />
I am lookig for a way to delpoy windows firewall rules for inbound connections and delpy them using Group policy on server 2008. <br />
<br />
I have tried to do this already by going to the following path in the GP edit console. Computer configuration&gt; Windows Settings&gt; Security Setting&gt; Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. <br />
<br />
I then Created the approriate rules under the Inbound section and set windows firewall to on. <br />
<br />
This has still not changed any windows firewall settings on domain machines when logged in as a domain account. <br />
<br />
Can someone help me and explain how or if it is even possible to deploy Windows firewall settings using Group policy to windows 7 machines? <br />
<br />
(other group policy rules are applied such as background and drive maps)
