Re: [FW1] secure remote compatibility with fw-1

Keith,
Yes, you can have an older version of SR work with 4.1 AND you can have 4.1xx work
with a 4.0 firewall.  In order to to this efficiently, you need to create a rule
that says any > firewall >port 264 > reject.

4.1xx will try to connect on port 264, the new sr port, and the old systems used
256.  When it cannot connect, or gets rejected on the new port, the sr client will
try to use the old port.
