Hello List,
I've tried using the "fw logswitch" command to clear the large fw.log file, but the fwd.log is complaining
with the following error :
fwd: log_switch: no log file !
I think the logfile is closed because of the size of the logfile 2,1 GB (solaris limit), and the error messages in
the fwd.log file :
fwd: SwOpen: can't get inode of /opt/CKPfw/log/fw.log: Value too large for defined data type
I really would like to know how to clear the fw.log file, if possible without stopping the Firewall. Some people talk
about coping /dev/null to the file, but nobody seem to know for sure. I read about patches that can be installed to
resolv the logswitch problems, but I just have to get rid of this giant logfile.
CheckPoint FW-1 version 4.0 build 4066
Solaris 2.6
Thanks in advance !
Marcel Lambrechts
