I am trying to setup a windows 2003 firewall on a remote server via remote desktop..

Installing a firewall is probably a 5minute job but remotely it seems mission impossible, since the first thing most firewalls do is blocking my remote connection. so i end up a running but sealed off server..

i tried sygte, softperfect, visnetic and kerio personal... so far and all locked me out, visnetic crashed the windows every time, is there anyone having experience with this?
