Peter, I've been busy on projects here, and have just started looking through my backlog of messages. Have you solved this yet? The password it's asking for is to allow safe communications (authentication)between the fwmgr and the fwmodule. These need to match on both systems A & B. On both systems, do the following: Verify that the time is correct for both systems. On FW A and FW B fwstop On FW A fw putkey -p {password} fwB_IP On FW B fw putkey -p {password} fwB_IP On FW A and FW B fwstart When FW B contacts FWmgr A, it will ask for it's policy, if all else is OK, FWmgr A will send over the correct policy.
