gemcneill Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I have a dedicated server running win2k3 and I did not enable the firewall before I shipped it to its location. I would like to do this, but if memory serves me correctly if I enable the windows firewall it will shut down remote desktop. If this is correct does anyone have any ideas on how to get around this. I thought about making a batch file that would enable the windows firewall service, then use netsh to make an exception for remote desktop. Would this work?

Santino Cid Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 You can make an exception before you turn it on. Open up the exceptions tab and make sure that "Remote Desktop" is checked or port 3389 is added. Kick it on and you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
