Firewall on Windows 2000

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.security (More info?)

Hello group.

I am running a web service on Windows 2000.
It doesn't have a firewall.
Can I use the TCP/IP filtering on the adapter option to block all
traffic except for port 80?
I don't know what's the difference between TCP/IP filtering and
firewall.

Thanks.

Sam

You should read the replies to your other post. They have answered your

Thanks.

Actually I didn't mean to multi-post.
After I posted my original question, I couldn't find it.
Later I found out that it was attached to a thread.
