Windows Firewall Win XP
-
Hi there, I've created an application that use ComPlus distribution (Client/Server Application). When I connect to a PC with windows firewall it ask me if I want to unlock the program accessing the network. Once I’ve unlock the program it creates a 'Com Surrogate' acception in the firewall settings. My problem is that if I delete that acception the Windows Security Alert dialog box does not pop up again when I try to connect to that PC, and the client PC obvious give me an 'Remote Server Machine does not exists' error. How can I get the firewall to ask me if I want to unlock the program again? Thanks, Werries

Goto
Windows Security Center -> Firewall -> Exceptionsand delete the correct Program/Service from the list.
Trinity: Neo... nobody has ever done this before. Neo: That's why it's going to work.

I did remove it from the exceptions list, and that is my issue, why doesnt the Windows Firewall Unlock dialog box pop up again?

It doesn't show you dialog again, because you created rule (disable your application). If you removed this rule from firewall rules list, it would ask you.
