Hello,
I attempted to strip a number of files from incoming SMTP and POP3 traffic
on our Checkpoint Firewall, running 4.1 SP3 on Solaris. I made the
following changes to the objects.C file:
: (smtp_filter
:color (magenta)
:type (Tcp)
:comments ("SMTP with Attachment Stripping")
:port (25)
:src_port_from ()
:src_port_to ()
:fastmode (false)
:res_type (
:tytpe (refobj)
:refname ("#_SMTP spec")
)
:forbiddenfiles (
:("{*.vbs, *.A, *.1*}")
)
)
Nothing too brilliant, as the change was taken right from the Release
Notes of 4.1 SP3. I even removed the existing objects.C.sav and
objects.C.bak out of $FWDIR/conf to another folder. When I brought the
firewall back up, I received a number of error messages and the firewall
failed. Any one have similar problems with setting up Attachment Filtering
on SMTP or POP3?
What I question is the following:
1. I placed spaces in :("{*.vbs, *.A, *.1*}") between the comma and next
extension, anyone know if that's a problem?
2. I edited the objects.C in pico, should I have used vi?
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert Woods
