The typical method would be to :
1.) telnet to the firewall and find yourself at the "$" prompt.
2.) "/sbin/tfadmin newlvl SYS_PRIVATE"
3.) at the "SYS_PRIVATE>" prompt, type "su" and enter the root password when asked.
4.) you then should find yourself at the "#" prompt.
I just signed up for this mail list this morning so I'm not sure where this
conversation began. Can you successfully perform #2 as stated above ? Note that
the syntax is case sensitive. What errors are you seeing?

Subject: Re: Cyberguard Firewall setup
Due to the B1 OS B1, it is not possible with the standard configuration to
become root through a telnet connection.
Doing that is only possible with a change of the OS configuration and will
further dimish the security of the bastion.

firewall from internal network but after connection I can't change the
level from NETWORK to SYS_PRIVATE.
