I believe I know what you need.

When you first log into SPLAT, you are only getting to the cpshell, which
allows you to run just check point commands, in order to fully have access
to the platform, you need to go to expert mode, but as far as I know there
is no way to go straight to expert from the beginning on a standard SPLAT
installation. So I believe it was on this discussion list, that somebody
posted a way around it.

In SPLAT go to expert mode, then cd to /etc and vi the passwd file, the last
line of the contents will show "cpshell", replace that with "bash" (without
the quotations off course) and save the changes. Logout with the exit
command twice (once for expert, once for cpshell) and login again, this time
you should get straight to expert mode and that should do it for what you
need.

Now, you must take in count that doing this you are opening a big security
hole in your SPLAT machine, so I would only recommend doing this on a
SmartCenter machine well guarded on your LAN or in firewall modules in a
safe environment.

I have used this for accessing SPLAT machines using WinSCP, which allows to
easily get files in or out of SPLAT boxes.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Has anyone successfully used FTPS with R55?  We have some bank software
that requires outbound FTPS access, and the connection attempt fails
everytime.  In the logs, there is an error: Port command ended without a
new line

I found a KB article (sk26049) about this error, but after trying out
Check Points recommendation, it still does not work.

I am running R55 HFA_15 on the enforcement point.

Does anyone have an idea on how to get this working, or if it is even
supported on R55?

Thanks,
