There is a "feature" in fw-1. If you make modifications to the objects.c file, your modifications will be dumped unless you delete the backup files. I think they are called objects.c.bak (there may be another) Thomas Poole -----Original Message----- From: LO GUIDICE, Yannick [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, October 23, 2000 8:26 AM To: Fw-1-Mailinglist (E-mail) Subject: [FW1] Aliases for Interfaces -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I wanted to change the names of the interfaces of my Firewall, for it will be easier to read the logs and export and analyse them. I've FW1 4.1 SP2 on Winnt 4.0. So I went in the description of the interfaces and changed it. At first, it didn't work. I've managed to have the official-name of the interfaces changed, but not their description. I stopped the FW, changed the descriptions of the interfaces in the conf\objects.C file and restarted the FW. I checked and the description of the interfaces changed. Yahoo!!! But, the description of the interfaces in the log viewer didn't change. I found that the description of the interfaces was still bad in the database\objects.C file. I stopped the FW for the second time, modified this file, restarted the FW... I was very surprised to see that my modifications were scratched ; there are still the old descriptions of the interfaces in this file. So where the hell is FW1 looking for the descriptions of these interfaces ? What can I do ? Thanks. - -- Societe V.
