Re: [FW1] GUI client over Securemote
This is the way we do it using the Enterprise edition with the management console
using SSH on UNIX. In addition, this is the "quick and dirty" method. A more
elegant solution is to use PKI, LDAP, RADIUS, etc.
Install
1. Create a group that contains the userids that should be allowed to access the
management console. In this example, I have created a group called
FWAdmin.
2. Create a rule using Client Authentication. The reason for client authentication is
because you may come from any IP address and use the defined services as long
as you are authenticated beforehand. Insert a rule before the stealth rule that
looks like this:
FWAdmin@any <mgmt console> <desired svcs> ClientAuth Long
3. Telnet to port 259 or HTTP to port 900, login, and authenticate for the session
(no. 1, I believe). The telnet or HTTP session will disconnect immediately.
4. SSH to your management console and login.
5. Modify $FWDIR/conf/gui-clients and add your current IP address to the
file. You may want to create a backup of this file fitst.
6. You may now run all the GUI clients from home!
Backout
Remove your IP address from the gui-clients file and all is well again.

Has anyone found a way of running the GUI clients (policy/log/status) when
connected via Securemote.
The problem is with the 'cpconfig' setup and what to put in the 'GUI
Clients' without breaking security but not knowing what IP your coming in
on.
