Guest Kraig Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 2 PC's with the same error on a Windows 2003 Domain: The Windows Firewall service terminated with service-specific error 2150760483 (0x80320023). Log Name: System Source: Service Control Manager Date: 7/8/2008 3:09:14 PM Event ID: 7024 Task Category: None Level: Error Keywords: Classic User: N/A The firewall service cannot be started from the Windows Firewall Applet in the control panel, or from the Services.msc snap in. The FW service is set to automatic. There are no other antivirus or firewall apps running. I checked the RPC Service, it is set to auto and the DCOM Server Process Launcher is set to automatic, as well. I checked the Registry Keys mentioned in the KB article, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943996 and the permissions are set correctly. Here is a workaround: The only way to start the service is to join a workgroup, reboot, turn the firewall service back on, and then rejoin the domain and reboot. The FW service will then stay on until the PC is rebooted. I have seen many posts on the Internet with the same or similar problem, but with no solution. Any help would be appreciated. Quote
