I am experiencing an issue with Windows Firewall via Group Policy on Windows SBS 2008. When moving any machine, physical or virtual, from our primary SBSComputers OU to our SBSServers OU (no parent/child relationship to one another, both children of Domain>MyBusiness>Computers), Windows Firewall is activated and remote access to the machine is disabled in Advanced System Settings. I have been able to replicate the issue on multiple machines. Assuming that this behavior must be a result of a GPO setting of which I was unaware, I ran RSOP on the machines and dug through every GPO that had been applied, but found nothing that explains the change. The Firewall setting "Protect All Network Connections" had been enabled for the SBSComputers OU (the original location of the machine), but it has never been enabled for the SBSServers OU (the destination). Even after disabling this setting for the SBSComputers OU (so it is no longer enabled anywhere in our environment) the same issue occurs when the above scenario is replicated.
I am still getting a handle on Group Policy Management and learning how to manipulate GPOs, so my hope is that I am simply overlooking something that will be obvious to those of you with more experience.
