Does anyone know the reason these Checkpoint solutions have you fwstop before making the changes?? I would like to be able to edit base.def and then fwstop;fwstart, creating the shortest down time for our users.
 
When I did it their way, I kept checking the base.def at each step and can't figure out why I needed to fwstop first.
 
Thanks for the enlightenment!

Title: ftp problems

as far as I know - if you use both these checkpoint solutions and apply both of them together, should fix the problem - let me know if it does


Solution: FTP to specific servers fails (10043.0.7772541.2711982)      
Edit the $FWDIR/lib/base.def file to allow FTP headers without "\r\n":  1. Stop FireWall-1 (fwstop) 2. Edit the /$FWDIR/lib/base.def 3. Mark out the following line:  #define FTP_ENFORCE_NL to: //#define FTP_ENFORCE_NL  4. Start FireWall-1 (fwstart) 5. Re-install the policy  Note for Solutions to other problems arising from an upgrade to FireWall-1 4.0 SP6, see FTP to some servers fails <solutionarea.asp?id=10043%2E0%2E7802303%2E2713413>

Solution: FTP to some servers fails (10043.0.7772541.2711982)  
Edit the /$FWDIR/lib/base.def file to allow this behavior:  1. Stop the FireWall (fwstop) 2. Edit the $FWDIR/lib/base.def: Change it from:  #define FTPPORT(match) (call KFUNC_FTPPORT <0x1|(match)>)  // // Use this if you do not want the FireWall module to insist on a newline at the // end of the PORT command: // #define FTPPORT(match) (call KFUNC_FTPPORT <(match)>)  To:  //#define FTPPORT(match) (call KFUNC_FTPPORT <0x1|(match)>)  // // Use this if you do not want the FireWall module to insist on a newline at the // end of the PORT command: #define FTPPORT(match) (call KFUNC_FTPPORT <(match)>)  (The change is to comment the first line, and uncomment the last one)  3. Start the FireWall (fwstart) 4. Re-install the policy  Note- for Solutions to other problems arising from an upgrade to FireWall-1 4.0 SP6, see FTP to specific servers fails <solutionarea.asp?id=10043%2E0%2E7772541%2E2711982>
