Windows XP Security >> Open up remote admin ports without GPO? Hello, I have some problems with the GPO for opening up remote admin ports to
clients and since GPO-troubleshooting is rather timeconsuming I intended to
settle for a quick solution and instead use
"netsh firewall set service remoteadmin enable custom 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0
domain"

The problem is that I want to use this in a script and somehow the firewall
context menu disappears as soon as you enter the netsh remote mode.
Is it known why the firewall context mode disappears for remote computers
and is there a way to get around this?
Basically I need a simple way to toggle/show the firewall state for remote
computers without resorting to GPO's or login script so is this possible?

Thanks in advance!
