Did a little web surfing and found an answer as to how to enable ports and
turn firewall on and off in XP embedded *after* FBA (in other words, once
received fully configured) --
from a DOS cmd prompt:
> netsh
netsh> firewall
netsh firewall> show state (lets you see what's enabled and what's not)
netsh firewall> set portopening TCP 80 MyWebPort
I tried it and it worked!
