    I believe the "domain" settings are only used when the machine can
    actually contact the domain. Otherwise, the stronger settings are used.

    office...

    Hi List,
    When users with SP2 firewall enabled are out of the office, I understand
    there is a difference between the domain settings and non domain settings
    but how does the firewall 'recognise' the boundaries of the scope?

    What if scope is subnet and they simply connect to an identical
    subnet?(Not
    sure how likely that is) I think this would mean they are open on those
    ports that I have set exceptions for.

    Kind Regards
    Murad Talukdar
