On a computer I can set the firewall to allow certain ports and programs but as soon as it is joined to the domain the ones I added are no longer allowed and I have to go back in and re-allow them. Is there a way to join a computer to a domain and not have the firewall settings changed? I figure there must be a setting on the domain controller that our network person does not know about that can be set to allow them. The domain controller is running windows server 2003. If more info is needed let me know. Thank you.
