Can anyone help me with what port I need to add to my
Windows XP client machines that are running SP2 w/ the
ICF turned on to give me the ability to remotely manage
my machines via Active Directory on my DC?

Thank you,

Tony
 
You can manually enable TCP port 445, or even better would be to enable the
"Allow remote administration" exception for your local subnet or the
individual IPs of your administrative workstations.
 
You would really be using an RPC Call when you try to manage any
of your machines or servers using say something like
compmgmt.msc. RPC over TCP is Port 135.

Once Question I had was Did you face a lot of issues with having
ICF Enabled on domain workstations participating on the network.?
