Hopefully someone here can give me a suggestion. I'm in a situation where I need to setup a Win2K Webserver. Now the client does not want to sprint for a firewall for this server. On linux I'd just whip up some iptable rules and filer out what I don't want. Is there a Win2K comparable solutions? I just want to basically close all ports but [...] type solution.
Thanks,

also look for netsh.exe in the resource kit
for a commandline interface to the filters
much like cisco ios
connection properties > General tab > TCP/IP properties > Advanced > Options > TCP/IP filtering > Enable TCP/IP filtering check box > permit only radio button...
plumsauce: do you know where to get this utility if I don't have the resource kit? I'd like the option best of all. I would be happy with a Cisco ISO or Linux type interface. I understand them :)
Stretch: Right I know I had seen that somewhere before. If I can't get a command-line utility I might go that route.
Thanks,

the resource kit is freely downloadable from
microsoft. try either the main iis site under
downloads, or the msdn site under downloads.
about 50MB.
it uses the same mechanisms as the packet
filtering option under the network properties,
but is much more granular.
the reason for netsh.exe is that you can work
on the filters to your hearts content in a
txt file and then run it as a batch. good
for rebuilding.
there is actually nothing wrong with kerio,
it is VERY good.
with the netsh.exe you can very close to
what can be done with a cisco pix.
