Right, not only can you not specify port ranges as you have done, but
you can not specify subnet ranges as you have done. You can specific an
address, a subnet or * but not ranges of a subnet.

Looking at the docs, I would say that you can only specify a specific
port as that field is defined as <Port> where <Port> is a decimal
number. 

You could try putting in a * as a wildcard and see if that works. If
not, you may consider using ipsec policies instead.

Subject: [ActiveDir] configure port exceptions in windows xp firewall
via gpo

Hello,

I am trying to configure the "Windows firewall:define port exceptions"
policy on my clients (xpsp2). 

What I want is to block the communication from clients on all ports; and
enable the servers (win2k3), printers and gateways to communicate with
the clients (on all ports)

I have been using strings looking like

1-65536:tcp:192.19.100.101-192.19.100.200/24:disable:disable client
communication 1-65536:tcp:192.19.100.1-192.19.100.40/24:enable:enable
server and printer communication
1-65536:tcp:192.19.100.250-192.19.100.254/24:enable:enable gateway
communication


(You could say that the "disable client communication" string works
since the clients are inaccessible, however you cannot access them from
the server either, so...) =)

   
Perhaps you cannot specify multiple ports the way I did or is there
something else wrong with my strings. Suggestions? 

Regards
Peter
