I have created a simple GPO using group policy preferences to stop the
Windows XP firewall service (SharedAccess) and to stop the Vista
firewall service (MpsSvc). I configured: Computer Configuration >
Preferences > Control Panel Settings > Services.
I created an entry for service "MpsSvc" with the Action to stop the
service, Startup as No Change, and Account Logon as No Change.
I created a second entry for service "SharedAcess" with the same
settings.
The GPO works fine for XP machines, but I see no change for Vista. The
RSOP shows the GPO was applied as does the Group Policy event log. I
have tried to run this with an Account Logon of Local System, but that
made no difference. I suspect it is a Vista UAC issue, so does anyone
see anything I missed?
