Hi Everyone,

I hope this is an easy question to answer. I have setup a Windows
2003 server and a domain to do some local testing and development. I
have a Vista Ultimate client that I have joined to the domain and
everything is working smashingly.... that is until I enable the firewall
on the Windows 2003 server.

I have checked the network adapter configuration(Advanced Tab of
the Windows Firewall config window, and according to the nic settings
the following ports are open:
DHCP - 67 UDP
DHCP - 68 UDP
DNS - 53 - UDP

and I have manually added an exception for:
DNS - 53 - TCP

The issue that I run into is that while the firewall is off, I
instantly connect to the domain and everything works as expected. When
the firewall goes up, I connect to DHCP and get an IP as well as
internet connection through the gateway, but my group policy, mapped
drives and everything else domain related goes away.

Am I missing a port?

Thanks for your time and effort,
Everett
