Philippe,
Lots of questions...
What does the log tell you? On which interface does the fw claim to see
the packet - if at all?
Can you tell us what the local.arp file looked like before the upgrade? Now?
I know you said it was copied over, but how(via floppy, FTP, etc.)? Is the
name all lower case?
What does 'arp -a' show you?
When you copied the file to the new fw, did you reinstall the rulesbase &/or
restart the fw?
How about the patch to SP1, did you install that(what does fw ver -k show)?
Did you license the same IP's?
I'm assuming that you have a quad thernet NIC - whose is it? In the pre-
upgrade, did you modify the MAC addresses to be unique(you elude to
them changing)?
Have you tried to replace the white space in local.arp with tabs? I think
that notepad.exe and DOS edit convert tabs to space, so it may not matter.
This should have been the first question, but besides the FW-1 upgrade,
what else changed? Did you reinstall the NT SP?
Again, sorry for all the questions, but these are just some of what goes
through my mine after I go from good to not-so-good.
Robert
