are the RRAS filter's port data stored in the registry?
if so, anyone know where? I want to export/import a long
list of port exceptions to a backup server.
 
A knowledge base article somewhere says that the RRAS
service is dependent on the Remote Registry service, so
does that hint that the config data for RRAS be stored in
the registry? Could it possibly be stored in the binary
value "InterfaceInfo" in the
key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\
RemoteAccess\Interfaces\#\IP"?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
 
No, that is not a hint for that. The remote registry service must be
running because the MMC uses the remote registry service to access RRAS. It
works through remote registry because they need not be on the same machine.
You can configure RRAS on one server from the MMC on another. Even if they
are on the same machine, ther use the remote registry calls (ie MSFT didn't
write two blocks of code when one will do both jobs).
 
Hello Stephen ,

I had similar enquiries about such thing and found something so useful
and so powerful...! The problem is that it took me a long time to get
to it :(
search for more info on netsh (netsh is a shell program that comes
with windows) and you will be amazed at what you can do with it. (ie.
create a script that will recreate your rras setup for back up or other
purposes.) you can even use it to automatically control your
firewall.
cheers,
Khalid..
