[wix-users] Firewall Inbound rule using Wix element

[Marc Beaudry]

Ok, not sure what is meant by helping update the existing CA for everyone to
benefit, but once I figure this out, I can gladly share and help in any way
for everyone to benefit from this.

Here is my initial test: I don't see anything that mention how to state if
it an inbound or outbound rule:

I want to open port 23 for a telnet server I have written, but the
documentation states if I specify a program or a file then I cannot specify
a port.
      
<fire:FirewallException Id=" FirewallException_Test" Name="Test123 "
Port="23" Protocol="tcp" Scope="any" IgnoreFailure="yes" Profile="all" />

I agree with Rob and my post last week was not intended to imply that the
WixFirewallExtension does not work on Vista or later.  I register my apps on
Win8 and Win 10 allowing them to listen for in-bound traffic.

Why not help update the existing custom action so everyone gets the benefit?
I mean we'd have nothing today if we didn't do that originally.

Hello All,

 

Apologies for the post, I just found a post from Phil Hogland from last
Tuesday (Nov 17), that  the firewall extension hasn't been updated with the
latest firewall setting, therefore I will go the CA approach.

 

Thanks 

Marc
