How do I configure XP Firewall to allow SQL remote connect..
Posted: Fri Dec 15, 2006 4:14 pm
I am wondering is there is a way in IA to set the Windows Firewall 'Exception list'.
With Windows Security becoming more and more restrictive, I am finding that the Windows Firewall is blocking numerous things, IA Updates, running of our application, SQL Express remote connections, etc.
Obviously this is a significant problem now and will become even more restrictive in the future.
In Wise, I was able to define the Firewall exception list, thus permitting our applications to run unhindered. In IA there appears to be no such feature. Can you PLEASE develop a plugin to address this issue or explain in detail how and where to script firewall exceptions in IA?
Thanks very much for your help.
