Thanks a lot, I checked everything, plugged a hub to test the management from an other station. Nothing and same message in the other station.
I suspected the installation to have a problem - A file was asked by the installation procedure on a disk 2, but no disk 2. I suspect this file was missing (layout.bin), because I cancelled the first time. Same problem in the new installation, but after browsing to the file on the CD, the installation could be completed. - In fact there was a licence problem that was solved AFTER installation by addind a licence. This could also have blocked the Firewall. - The FQDN may also be the problem. A new instalation works with no problem ! May be this can help other. Now I am going to transfer the parameters of an old 4.1 to my new FP3. Any precious tip welcome. I have the procedure from Checkpoint technical Site. Anybody tried ? regards all.
