Why netsh show that it changed the advfirewall state, instead of giving an
error message that it cannot?
On one server (2008 x64 SP2), I issued:
%systemroot%\system32.netsh.exe advfirewall set allprofiles state off
%systemroot%\system32.netsh.exe advfirewall show allprofiles state
and get all three states shown as off, as you normally would expect.
But I had previously set Windows Firewall settings in Group Policy. And the
Windows Firewall MMC, says the three firewall profiles are On. And that the
administrator has configured settings etc., which is what I expect. It just
doesn't match netsh advfirewall show allprofiles state.
Isn't that a bug, and an important one? Or have I missed something?
