Hey, folks! I am DESPERATELY trying to locate, in either the registry or
elsewhere, where firewall.cpl stores the following (below is the common
term used to refer to the setting, along with the name of the registry
key (if one exists) to the best of my knowledge):

Allow local program exceptions AllowUserPrefMerge
Allow remote admin exception RemoteDesktop
Allow file and printer sharing FileAndPrint
Allow remote desktop exception RemoteDesktop
Allow UPnP framework exception UPnPFramework
Log Dropped Packets LogDroppedPackets
Log Successful Connections LogSuccessfulConnections
Logfile pathname LogFilePath
Logfile Size LogFileSize
Prohibit Unicast DisableUnicastResponsesToMulticastBroadcast
Define Port Exceptions GloballyOpenPorts
Allow Local Port Exceptions AllowUserPrefMerge

I THINK these should be in he registry but I dumped registry starting
from HKLM and could not find them. I could find a few settings under
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy
  but not the ones specified above. I found a readme on the MS site that
mentioned GPO, but that makes no sense if a system is, for example, not
in a domain. Having said that, I am not a Windows expert and could be wrong.

Help would be very greatly appreciated. Sorry for spamming 3 groups but
I am trying desperately to figure this out over the weekend.
