HI Currently we seem to encounter some issues with a client trying to connect to a SQL server.Logs show traffic returningnfrom the server being dropped by rule 0. 4.1SP3 somehow its not being accepted by the 'state table' and I have tried a work around to disable a security enhancement and allow "Non SYN" packets to be matched against the rule base follow these steps: 1. On the Management Server, open the file $FWDIR/lib/fwui_head.def 2. Find the line /*#define ALLOW_NON_SYN_RULEBASE_MATCH*/ and uncommenting it BUT Doesn't seem to help . Now after doing that the log shows it dropped by cleanup rule instead. Scenario: Aceepted Client --------> Sql server Service =SQL_service Protocol=tcp Source port=1471 Dropped by Rule 0 Sql server----------> client service=1471 protocol=tcp Source port=Sql_service And when i uninstalled the SP3 , files went missing and even fw could not start! I reinstalled sp 3 and threw back the database and conf directory which i had backed up and am now back to square one. TIA for your advice. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp ================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================
