Deployment scanner and DCOM

Greetings all,

 

I am trying to install EV on Win Srv 2012 and the Deployment scanner keeps on reporting that 

Both DCOM and Windows Firewall are enabled on your system. To ensure that you have correctly configured Windows Firewall to work with DCOM, see article http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH124260.

I have done everything the article suggests yet DCOM warning is still present.

When I turn the FW off the warning disappears.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thank you.

    There might be an issue with the deployment scanner.  Easiest thing would be to turn off the firewall, install EV, re-enable the firewall making sure all the appropriate ports are open.

    Hello,

    I would run this windows command to confirm that the port 135 is allowed in the firewall:

    netsh advfirewall firewall show rule all
