Windows Server 2003 Firewall preventing clients from connecting to Domain

pls help

I can't seem to find what I'm looking for on MS site.

My clients can't connect unless I drop the firewall on the server which is not really ideal

Can someone help?

I don't see why you need the firewall on in the first place.

Either the server is behind a broadband router or similar in which case it should be protected by the firewall on the router.

If the server has the net comming straight into it (i.e two network cards, one having a public IP), then something like ISA firewall would be better.
