Hello all,
Firewall-1 from Checkpoint runs also on I386 platforms under Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT (both Workstation and Server). It is a little tricky
to configure, because proxy arp doesnt work under these OS and firewall
soft uses a special file for supplying proxy arp services.
We are actually running such configuration on a 3 years old Dell Optiplex
GXA with 3Com 3C905 NIC.

>> I'm looking at the Checkpoint Firewall-1 v4.0. Documentation indicates
that the firewall module runs on HP-UX 10.x, as well as Solaris and NT.
I'm interested in the HP-UX version. However, a local reseller said that
they talked to Checkpoint and Checkpoint said that they actually don't know
of anybody who runs Firewall-1 on HP-UX and they couldn't really suggest
that OS. That sounds pretty farfetched to me.
