Yes, you can use GPO, that's what we have done.

Or, I partially agree. The firewall can and does interfere with some applications - and you want to understand and fully test your company's business applications to determine what - if any - tweaking is required to enable those applications in your environment. But saying you should disable the firewall? I disagree. Defense in depth is a well documented approach, and one more layer is a good thing. is the firewall in WinXP perfect? Far from it (what is?). But having it enabled is a good thing. It's just important to understand what requirements you have and address them appropriately. ________________________________ From: John Tolmachoff (Lists) [mailto:johnlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Fri 2/18/2005 4:31 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Outlook refresh problem - Solved http://www.MSExchange.org/ If you are using Windows XP Professional in a corporate environment, you should have the firewall disabled as that will interfere with a lot of domain things.
