Symon,
Yes, I noticed that some had experienced problems with w2ksp3. That's why I kept it 
down on w2ksp2. It has been up and running for 8 hours now and it's still up and 
running. :)

PS: The reason I continued trying to get it up and working on w2k instead of choosing 
an alternative platform, is that many of our customers prefer that the firewall is 
running the same platform as the rest of their servers (and they have had fw1 running 
on nt 3.51, 4.0, w2k for years). Many might argue that this might not be too wise, but 
when fw1 is up and running it's usually not any worse or better on win32 than other 
platforms. And win32 has the past few years been a platform where fixes has been 
released more quickly than both hpux and aix. I guess Solaris has always been a good 
platform (except Solaris x86) and Linux/Secureplatform seems to be taking more and 
more market share and seems to be something Checkpoint is putting quite some effort 
into. IPSO might also be a great alternative, but requires special hw.
