.NET server built in firewall?
This is a discussion about .NET server built in firewall? in the Windows Networking category; I have installed. NET server RC1 on my gateway. When I setup NAT on it it asked me if I wanted to use the built in firewall. Is this firewall any good? Or should I install a third party firewall like Norton Personal Firewall.

Or should I install a third party firewall like Norton Personal Firewall. (I have run that before and I like it). Or should I go with some other firewall that is built to use with servers? Any recomendations?

yea norton personal firewall wouldnt be the way to go
it works but there are probs
like u prolly have to manually start the service
occasional bsod (rare)
and sometimes the firewall goes haywire and blocks EVERYTHING
i mean everything
norton makes other firewalls that would prolly work.

OP
I used norton on win2k advanced server and it worked ok. Atleast I think it was the personal firewall or maybe it was some server firewall from norton. I have to check when I get home. But for now I will stay with the built-in one in .NET.
