I have written a simple script to release address from the VPN Pool NAT on a nokia box :-
#!/bin/sh echo about to clear >> /var/log/ClearVPNLog /opt/CPfw1-50-02/bin/fw tab -t fwx_ip_lookup_tab -t fwx_cntl_dyn_tab -s >> /var/log/ClearVPNLog echo cleared >> /var/log/ClearVPNLog date >> /var/log/ClearVPNLog When I run this from the command line it works as expected and I see all the addresses in the Pool released. However when I try and run it from crontab it runs all the commands except the fw one which is the useful one. ashfw02[root]# more /var/etc/crontab # This file was AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED # Generated by cron_xlate on Mon Sep 16 13:45:42 2002 # # DO NOT EDIT # SHELL=/bin/sh PATH=/etc:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin HOME=/var/log MAILTO="" # #minute hour mnthday month weekday user command # 5 * * * * root /etc/hourly 2>&1 >>/var/log/hour ly 30 0 * * 7 root /etc/weekly 2>&1 >>/var/log/week ly 15 0 * * * root /etc/daily 2>&1 >>/var/log/daily 45 0 1 * * root /etc/monthly 2>&1 >>/var/log/mon thly * */4 * * * root /opt/CPfw1-50-02/bin/ClearVPN I am not a Unix admin but have used these scripts before to check on the number of maiuls in the spool directory, Help !!! thanks Mark ================================================= 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] =================================================
