Q:fw_ipaddr: cannot get my ipaddr Whenever I try and do anything in FireWall-1 (even during the installation), I get this error message on my console: fw_ipaddr: cannot get my ipaddr
A:This messages means that FireWall-1 is not able to resolve an IP address to it's own nodename. On Unix or NT, you should be able to type in the command "hostname" to get the system's host name. You should then add an entry to your hosts file with this name. The IP this host should resolve to is usually the "external" IP (usually routable for all attached networks). from phoneboy site ================================================= To set vacation, Out Of Office, or away messages, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the BODY of the email add: set fw-1-mailinglist nomail ================================================= To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================= If you have any questions on how to change your subscription options, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] =================================================
