[FW1] NT System Error Logs regarding FireWall feauthd unknown reason

[Mike Glassman - Admin <admin@FW1-NOSPAMiaa.gov.il>]

All,

Another question regarding my FW-1 (4.1) running on an NT server.

I noticed after a system crash today, that when the system came up, it
showed the following two errors that I do not recall seeing before, and I do
not know the meaning of (seems this is occurring a lot with me lately).

FireWall-1: fwauthd: Cannot run server polsrvd: Authentication services are
unavailable. Connection refused.

FireWall-1: fwauthd: Will try late... (19 times left)

And then, I get the standard :

FW1SVC: Fetching Security Policy from localhost succeeded.

Anyone know what the first two messages are refering to ?

It would seem to have something to do with VPN (I think), but I have a temp
license for this, and all looks fine in the system params.

All replies gratefully acknowledged.
