Our company laptops have the MS firewall disabled when on our network (using GPO settings) to allow maintenance etc
How can I set this to re-enable MSfirewall when they are not on our on our network, but while still using their cached credentials?

There are two profiles available for the windows firewall i.e. a domain profile and a standard profile. Even with cached logins, I would have thought the "standard" would kick in once the system determined it could not contact the domain, and is possibly connected to another network. Both are configured using GPO.
Disable this on the domain GPO, but enable for Standard.
One can only wonder :)

I beleive you'll have to do this manually as and when the opportunity arises.
MSfirewall is a bit of a pig really, you'd think i'd allow protocalls for other systems on a trusted network to allow access, but it doesn't... so as i said, i think you may have to tackle this one manually when you can.
