Question : Cannot Disable XP Pro firewall even when not connected to Domain server

I have a small office network with a domain server. When I am on my client computer open the properties for the local area network connection my firewall ON or OFF option is greyed out and I cannot turn my firewall off. At the top of the firewall settings window there is a message that my settings are controlled by my domain server group policy. So.... I logged into my domain server as an admin and disabled all settings for the group policy. I then reboot the server and reboot my client computer. The windows XP Pro firewall settings are still greyed out and I cannot turn the firewall off.

The client firewall settings are still greyed out even when I log on to the local machine as an admin with no network connection present... HOW DO I TURN THE FIREWALL OFF ON MY CLIENT MACHINE!!!!

Answer : Cannot Disable XP Pro firewall even when not connected to Domain server

Assuming this is Windows XP Pro, settings in the Group Policy effect all users.
Try this:
Start>run>gpedit.msc
Then look in two places.
The first is computer configuration>Administrator Templates>Networking>Newtork Connections>Windows Firewall
Under domain and standard they all should be "Not configured"
The second is user configuration>Administrator Templates>Networking>Newtork Connections> they all should be "Not configured"
