05/07/2004 01:56 AMWindows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), currently a Release Candidate in Beta
testing, includes significant enhancements to the Windows Firewall
component, previously known as the Internet Connection Firewall (ICF).
Windows Firewall is a stateful host-based firewall that discards
unsolicited incoming traffic, providing a level of protection for
computers against malicious users or programs. To provide better
protection for computers connected to any kind of network (such as the
Internet, a home network, or an organization network), Windows XP SP2
enables Windows Firewall on all network connections by default. This
new behavior can impair some types of communications. This article
describes how to deploy the appropriate configuration settings for
Windows Firewall on an organization network so that it is enabled and
providing protection, and so that communications are not impaired.

“Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), now in Beta testing,
includes the new Windows Firewall, previously known as the Internet
Connection Firewall (ICF). Windows Firewall is a stateful host-based
firewall that drops all unsolicited incoming traffic that does not
correspond to either traffic sent in response to a request of the
computer (solicited traffic) or unsolicited traffic that has been
specified as allowed (excepted traffic). Windows Firewall provides a

Need A Windows Server Firewall? So Does
Microsoft
Need A Windows Server Firewall? So Does
Microsoft
03/19/2005 02:22 AMAn article from the Register by Mark Burnett of SecurityFocus has me
thinking about Windows Servers. We all know that most hosting servers
for websites and ftp servers are Linux-based servers. But Microsoft
has been pushing their new Windows Server software as being better then Apache, the Linux server software of
choice. This article says that there is no adequate firewall for
Windows servers. Check it out and let us know if you think they missed
something..
It seems like the solution would be simple enough. I have been
patiently waiting for someone to come along with a capable,
full-featured Windows firewall so I can stop explaining to everyone
why the right way to go is probably Linux with iptables. But my wait
has mostly been in vain. Every time I think I have found the ultimate
Windows firewall solution, I end up being disappointed in one way or
another… There are plenty of personal
firewalls out there that work quite well for desktop computers, but
they all fall short for server use. Some are obviously better than
others, but all are plagued with common problems such as poor logging
facilities, limited configuration capabilities, slow performance, and
worst of all, many of them seem to be prone to blue screens when
traffic gets very high.

11/16/2003 11:47 PMThe next version of the Microsoft Windows operating system, code-named
"Longhorn," marks a significant change not only in terms of how the
operating system works, but also in the way in which applications are
built. The Longhorn version of Windows includes a new storage system,
natural search technology, and an increased emphasis on security and
trustworthy computing. Here the author provides an overview of
Longhorn, focusing on the build-once, deploy n-times application
model. In addition, he discusses the new language, code-named "XAML,"
that's used to create UI elements, then presents some working samples.
