Guest Cesar Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Hello, I have a Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 used as a stand alone server. Every time I try to access the Windows Firewall console (interface), I get the following error in the event viewer: Event Type: Error Event Source: Service Control Manager Event Category: None Event ID: 7023 Date: 31/07/2007 Time: 11:41:46 a.m. User: N/A Computer: PR-WFL Description: The Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service terminated with the following error: The operating system cannot run Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). This above record in the event viewer appears after I click the "yes" button to star the service (Windows Firewall / ICS) at the command prompt when trying to acces the Windows Firewall. "Windows Firewall cannot run because the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) is not running ... " If I try to start the service manually, the same event is registered in the event viewer; but addcionally, I get a dialog box with the following message: "Error 182: 0xb6" I've searched for this error, but I haven't been able to find any ideas as to what is causing this problem and hjow to fix it. Any idea will help. Thanks in advance. Cesar

Guest Cesar Posted August 1, 2007 Posted August 1, 2007 Re: Windows Firewall not working Hello Robert, Thank you for your help. I'd already search for the other error " Windows Firewall cannot run because another ... that might use the network address translation component (Ipnat.sys)." and everything I found, pointed to disable the RRAS service; which is its current state on the server. Although if I open the RRAS console, it shows that the service is stopped and unconfigured; but there's a blue arrow in the console whereas in other server it has a red one. As to running the "netsh winsock reset" command, would that cause anything to stop from working; I mean this is a production server and has installed a several apps (lotus domino server included) and what I read about this command is that it will rebuild the network settings from scratch (probably the result as removing & reinstalling TCP/IP protocol). Thanks Kind regards, Cesar "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: > Try this command netsh winsock reset. please post back with the result. > > Also this link may help too, > > Microsoft Windows New release IssuesWindows Firewall running on DC - "Windows Firewall cannot run because another ... that might use the network address translation component (Ipnat.sys)." ... > http://www.howtonetworking.com/main.htm > > > Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE > Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net > How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com > "Cesar" <Cesar@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:EAF288A0-6DBD-4A8F-8BBF-6F2ACAB8CEBC@microsoft.com... > Hello, > > I have a Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 used as a stand alone server. > Every time I try to access the Windows Firewall console (interface), I get > the following error in the event viewer: > > Event Type: Error > Event Source: Service Control Manager > Event Category: None > Event ID: 7023 > Date: 31/07/2007 > Time: 11:41:46 a.m. > User: N/A > Computer: PR-WFL > Description: > The Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service terminated > with the following error: > The operating system cannot run Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing > (ICS). > > This above record in the event viewer appears after I click the "yes" button > to star the service (Windows Firewall / ICS) at the command prompt when > trying to acces the Windows Firewall. > > "Windows Firewall cannot run because the Windows Firewall/Internet > Connection Sharing (ICS) is not running ...
