| 611415 | 2007-11-14 06:42:00 | Hi to you people, The windows firewall in my pc ( acting as a RADIUS server in a domain) is inactive. I can't make it either on or off- the ON and OFF buttons are not active. At the bottom it says "windows firewall is using your non-domain settings". Please help me how to make it active. thanks |

| 611417 | 2007-11-15 06:25:00 | Thank you Speedy Gonzales, it helped me at first but when I log on the next day it still says "windows firewall is using your non-domain settings". how can i change it permanently to my domain settings? |

| 611418 | 2007-11-15 06:28:00 | Pass did it stay on automatic? Is is still on Automatic? As it says it should say there, once you change it from Manual to auto. |

| 611419 | 2007-11-15 07:41:00 | yes, the NLA properties startup type says Automatic. ( It didn't change since I changed it to automatic from manual yesterday). I wonder why windows firewall is still using non-domain settings! | mezwill (13012) | ||
| 611420 | 2007-11-15 08:00:00 | What version of Windows is it? If its XP or 2003, is SP2 or 3 installed? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 611421 | 2007-11-15 08:33:00 | Have you tried a gpupdate.exe /force and what is your domain policy set at? | berryb (99) | ||
| 611422 | 2007-11-15 10:57:00 | It is microsoft windows server 2003, enterprise edition with SP1. I havn't tried gpupdate.exe/force because I don't really know what it is. |

| 611423 | 2007-11-15 20:55:00 | I would update it to SP2 . Depending on whether you're using the 32 bit ( . microsoft . com/downloads/details . aspx?FamilyID=95ac1610-c232-4644-b828-c55eec605d55&DisplayLang=en" target="_blank">www . microsoft . com) Or 64 bit version ( . microsoft . com/downloads/details . aspx?familyid=08FEC2F5-6E3B-4E0D-9314-646414D0A421&displaylang=en" target="_blank">www . microsoft . com) Theyre not small tho, ones 372 mb, the other 350 mb If u do decide to update, read this first ( . microsoft . com/WindowsServer/en/library/ed5382af-e819-4d33-ace0-225d31b7ab751033 . mspx?mfr=true" target="_blank">technet2 . microsoft . com) |

| 611424 | 2007-11-15 22:49:00 | After re-reading your post ( acting as a RADIUS server in a domain) I'd say don't worry about it. Keep it as is. It is not needed. | berryb (99) | ||
