what is the windows 7 form of this netsh command?

netsh fire ad porto tcp 134 p134 ENABLE SUBNET

I want to open port 134, TCP, for local subnet.

it's incoming so for a server running on port 134. and only my LAN should have access.

yes i've seen that kind of link but as one can see from that link , documentation for it, it's rather trickier than the way it was in windows xp. I'm hoping somebody might know how.

Code:

netsh advfirewall firewall add name="Rule name" dir=in action=allow localport=134 remoteip=localsubnet

May or may not work. Its trickier because Windows 7 has a real firewall..hence "with Advance Security" applied to the name.

no if you paste that in the cmd prompt and push the enter key, you will see it gives an error message.. You could get it less wrong by saying add rule name but it still doesn't do it it just fails and lists the options and sets the errorlevel to 1 'cos it didn't do it.

hopefully somebody is familiar with it and can get it right.
