What are the startup dependencies? What about the account it runs under? ________________________________ From: John Bowles To: NT System Admin Issues Sent: Thu Mar 18 19:30:19 2010 Subject: RE: Installing Win2K8 Server as DC Issue +1
Jeff, that’s exactly the issue I’m having. The Windows Firewall will not even start up or allow me to start it up to allow traffic to the DC.

So, what I meant by off is, the service is stopped, which is the case for John, who’s firewall service won’t start at all.

Firewall Off = Traffic Allowed I have the firewall's off on my 2008 server and RDP to them just fine. ________________________________ From: Jackson, Jeff [mailto:jeff.jack...@rbza.com] Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2010 4:17 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Installing Win2K8 Server as DC Issue The 2008 firewall is conservative. In my experience, if it’s turned off, no traffic is allowed inbound. So, you can’t RDP into because your firewall won’t start up to allow traffic in.

I have this issue with my Exchange 2K7 server as well as DC. I keep getting access is denied when trying to turn on Windows Firewall on the DC.
