On my network I have 2 computers and a laptop, since installing comodo firewall pro v 3.0.13.268 I can not get access to the other computers. I have looked in help and do not understand what I am looking for. All puters are running xp, and the network was working in the older comodo. Please explain in very simple terms what I must do to get it to work again
Have you set a trusted Zone? If not, go to firewall\Stealth Ports Wizard.
The first choice should already be ticked [Define a new trusted network] Click next, then tick the choice that says “I would like to define a new trusted network zone” Add the starting and ending IP for your network, click finish.
Go to Firewall\ Advanced\Network Security Policy\ Global Rules\ And your new rules should be there.
Something like-
Allow TCP or UDP Out From IP Any to IP Any Where Source Port Is any and Destination Port Is Any
Allow IP In From In [Local Area Network] To IP Any Where Protocol Is Any
Allow IP Out From IP Any To In [Local Area Network] Where Protocol Is Any
Block and Log All Unmatching Requests
Threre are a couple of other ways to do it but that should work. Going on 4:30 am so I gotta crash.
Look for other post that show rules if the above does not make sense.
