Hello,
In updated our domain computers with SP2. Now when I scan the domain with
Baseline Security Analyzer the Program can't find the computers cause XP
firewall is on. How can I allow the BSA to be able to scan computers?

Thanks

Under Control Panel; Security Center; Click on the Manage Windows Firewall
Security Settings link. This should open the Windows Firewall dialog box.

Under the Exceptions tab, click the button 'Add Program...' and select BSA
from the programs listed (or browse to the BSA executable).

Under the General tab, make sure that 'Don't allow exceptions' is NOT
checked and you're done.

BSA should now be able to get thru the SP2 firewall and scan your network.
