[AccessD] OT: Comodo firewall

Well, that turned out to be too easy.  I downloaded comodo onto the new
server, deleted all of the existing rules re specific protocalls, used the
wizard on both systems to set up a trusted zone and voila, they can see
shared folders.  To get SQL Server happening I had to register the servers
and then switch back and forth between the servers answering affirmative on
the Comodo prompts and Voila, each server can see the other's server.  

Too bad they don't make an AV.

Subject: [AccessD] OT: Comodo firewall

Is anyone out there using Comodo firewall pro?  I have it, I like it, and I
am actually considering standardizing on it.  OTOH I need to learn more
about it because (for example) when I turn it on to "custom" it prevents the
other SQL Server from seeing the servers running behind that firewall.  I am
just wondering if anyone out there knows how to configure it to allow other
machines inside of my internal network to establish a trusted zone (I know
that it can do that) and what protocols to allow, etc.  Firewalls just have
too many tweaks and I do not understand them well enough to function.
