Windows Firewall is Blocking Remote Desktop
| 0 Votes |
Collections (part of 1 collection)
Description
| Windows Firewall replaced Internet Connection Firewall starting in Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 SP1. The listed computers have the Windows Firewall enabled and configured to block inbound UDP traffic on the port used by RDP (RDP uses port 3389 by default). Important Note: If the listed computers' firewall settings are being administered through a domain group policy, the results of this action may be overwritten by that policy. The actions below will only affect the local firewall policy, and will not affect any group firewall policy settings that may have been applied by a domain administrator. If your firewall has been configured via a domain group policy, these actions may report back as 'Failed', and the firewall must be disabled or configured through group policy instead. |
