Currently the configuration options for the firewall in Server 2003 look
just like that of XP pre SP2. If you allow a port, then it's allowed to
everyone. Where as in XP SP2 you can define through IP address exactly who
you want to give access to - much more like a true firewall, but it's still
only outbound :(

We won't see these advanced features in Server 2003 until Microsoft releases
the first Service Pack.

Read all about the cool new features we can expect:
