Re: How to config windows firewall allow dhcp services?



If you are using SP1 probably one of the easiest ways is to use the Security
Configuration Wizard as it will also you a lot of questions about the server
role and help you configure for optimum security and it also gives you the
ability to roll back changes if they do not work as planned. The second
link below may also help. --- Steve

I have windows 2003 std with the sp that includes windows firewall. How
do I set the firewall up so that it allows dhcp services to work
normally? There is the exception list but that does not list all
services like dhcp etc.
