Windows Firewall logging
Cool thing I learned today. In the control panel, go to Windows Firewall, Advanced, Security Logging, and you could log packets and connections.
The default location is C:\WINDOWS\pfirewall.log

Windows security – Access denied for Administrator!
In the Windows world, no access means no access! It’s something I’m not used to – you can actually disallow read/write access to Administrator in Windows! Of course, since you’re Administrator, you can always add it, but if you don’t have it set, you won’t be able to read/write your files! So funny huh? Well, for the seasoned Windows admins, you probably already know this. For the folks that are used to the Unix world where root is God, we all didn’t know it. Of course, Trusted Solaris might have something like 2 roots or something, but for the typical guys, it’s something new.
