Hi all,

We are currently reviewing software-based personal firewalls for our
Win2000/WinXP-based laptops. The reason for this is that our employees
spend 60-90% of their time outside our corporate network, and I need
to deploy some kind of system to make sure they are at least
reasonably safe when outside.

I need to be able to centrally manage the config of these firewalls. I
also need some functionality that turns it off automatically when
in-house, so that the firewall won`t hamper our software autiting,
group policies and all that.

Any suggestions on products I should look into?

best regards,
Trond Hindenes
