[FW1] Linux and FireWall 1 hangs

["Cazalis, Xabier" <xabier.cazalis@FW1-NOSPAMteleglobe.com>]

Hi,

I have installed the Checkpoint Firewall in an IBM Netfinity with Linux
Red
Hat.

I have also registered the external IP address. That is the public IP
address.

I have defined an NAT for that public address to an internal IP address
assigned to the server I am protecting.

I have defined the policies required to filter and control the packets.

For about 2 weeks everything seemed to work fine.

Suddenly I decided to go into production and FTP large amount of files
into
my server.

This has caused the Firewall and Linux to completely hang.

The Linux Kernel message says the following:

*	FW1: only 25 internal host allowed
*	FW1: no valid license
*	FW1:no license for encryption
*	FW1:lo output flter installed
*	FW1:fwpacket_frombuf : failed to put data (40 ! = 34)

I attach part of the messages log where the above is taken from.
 <<messlog.txt>> 
Please help urgently as I am now offering my services without the much
needed firewall.

Regards,

Xabier
