I know the problem (A sniffer shows all) Its the banner oracle uses on that site is big and fragments across three packets which the firewall doesent accept. If you rem this line #define FTP_ENFORCE_NL in base.def and push the policy than all works and by-passes the security check. However this is a temporary fix just to get the patch I think Oracle should change their useless banner or move it to after you have logged in. -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Holmstrom [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2001 1:08 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [FW1] ftp problems to oracle We've also seen this problem and we're running Checkpoint 4.1 SP3. A colleague of mine who operates a Checkpoint protected network was having the same issue with the oracle ftp site. Some users have reported the same thing happening to them from home, although most could access it fine. After some users reported problems from home, we chalked it up to an issue with the Oracle FTP site and asked the developer who was requesting to get to that site call Oracle. I'm not sure if he ever did. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has more information on this, but I'd be surprised if the problem was a Checkpoint issue, since we've been able to ftp to hundreds of other sites just fine. >From: "Pires, Michael" <[email protected]> >To: "'[email protected]'" ><[email protected]> >Subject: [FW1] ftp problems to oracle >Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2001 10:47:44 -0500 > > > >We are running checkpoint 4.0 Build 4156 and when we try and ftp to >oracle-ftp.oracle.com the client (or firewalls) send a RST packet but if we >try and ftp to ftp.oracle.com it works.
