Description

Hi all,

I would be great if someone could add this FAQ entry or similar to educate users to setup Maven 2 on Windows with a Norton Internet Security Firewall. You simply need to allow OUTBOUND UDP Communication for java.exe in the JDK that you use with Maven 2, and everything works fine. If you did not do this, you will simply not be able to do anything with Maven 2 as the system is unable to download the Maven 2 plugins.

Thanks,
Senaka
