		<description><![CDATA[So far I&#8217;ve written about the Homelab hardware I&#8217;ve purchased and some basic configurations for my Storage and XenServers. And with the post on Sysprepping a Windows 2008 Server, I&#8217;m ready to build my Windows 2008 Test environment. With a (sysprepped) Windows 2008 Template for my VMs, I can easily clone the needed Servers and [...]]]></description>

So to make sure the installed programs are functioning with the firewall turned on, you have to do your research on the communications that will occure between server and client (or other servers).
