Firewall Settings



Dear all

for a specific project, I need to configure the Windows 2003
firewall according to the following constraints:

- allow all connections to all ports except for TCP port 8080
- for TCP port 8080 allow only connections from 127.0.0.1/32
- for TCP port 8080 disallow all connections not from 127.0.0.1/32

After I have tried now to configure the Windows firewall accordingly
by using "netsh firewall" -- without success for hours :( -- I
contact you with a kind request for help.

Please let me know if this feasible at all with Windows firewall.
And if it is, how I can achieve the required firewall configuration.
Do I need to make use of the "IPseccmd" I found on
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813878/EN-US ?

I hope that it would be possible to achieve the goal with the
Windows 2003 Server firewall.

Any hint where to look for?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Lukas
