Firewall service configuration flaw
I am facing the problem of enabling my intranet computers to connect to IIS
on my print server. Although IIS has been installed, it is not defined in the exceptions list. I thought I could do it from the Services tab but I cannot find a way of restricting access to the intranet only. It seems that when I enable the Web server service it is going to be globally visible and I do not want it. |

Firewall service configuration flaw
You can configure exceptions in the Windows Firewall and not the service.
Also you should be using a perimeter device so that internet users can not access ANY services offered in your network. The device could be a real firewall or even a cheap NAT type internet router. The link below explains more and you need to go to Control Panel/network connections/network adapter/properties/advanced/settings to configure the Windows Firewall. You would want to allow access to port 80 TCP for your subnet only.--- Steve http://techrepublic.com.com/5100-1035-5305934.html "Krzysztof Zelechowski" wrote in message ...
