It currently runs FW1 on NT4 and i do not know which files to copy over onto the new machine to set this up. I've checked on checkpoints site but can't find any documentation. The machine is setup with the same IP's etc as the origional so i just need to copy over all of the objects etc. Any ideas? thanks Tom ============================================================================ ==== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ============================================================================ ==== ================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================
