Robert,
Your welcome.
It appears that your system isn't too heavily loaded.
How much memory is in that box? The first event
below appears to be a lack of buffer space for packets
and could be that you need more memory. But before
you start throwing $$ at it, check the configuration
of the NIC, you may be able to allocate buffer space
there, without effecting the machine as a whole.
The error about licensing and routers is just that. You
apparently don't have a license to use FW1 on your
router(s). If you haven't bought a license and don't
intend to, then change the object(s) that you've
defined as routers and make them workstation objects.
Get rid of the router error and see if the polsrvd/fwauthd
error goes with it.
Robert
