Fix my mistakes. My previous post ... > The problem might be caused because FW-1's SMP kernel mod > is designed especially for kernel 2.2.14 but RHS 6.2 uses 2.2.16. is false. Kernel version is not correct. I forgot our redhat machine was applyed kernel update rpms and RHS 6.2 uses version 2.2.14 by default installation. I also tried to load Firewall-1(Build 41862/sp4) kernel modules for smp by hand. Then follwing messages are shown. ># insmod fwmod_smp.2.2.x.o >fwmod_smp.2.2.x.o: kernel-module version mismatch > fwmod_smp.2.2.x.o was complied for kernel version 2.2.12-20 > while this kernel is version 2.2.14-5.0. Hummm, seems this module is designed for kernel 2.2.12. So correct answer is "The problem might be caused because FW-1's SMP kernel mod is designed especially for kernel 2.2.12 but RHS 6.2 uses 2.2.14." I also checked /etc/fw/boot/fw1boot. fwinsmod is called by $fwloadmod env which is defined by this line. 43: fwloadmod="/sbin/fwinsmod -f -$smp_prefix $fwmod kver=$kver" When you use smp kernel, $smp_prefix becomes "-p smp" $fwmod becomes "/opt/CPfw1-41/boot/modules/fwmod_smp.2.2.x.o" $kver is depend on your kernel ver.("14" in kernel 2.2.14), "-p" option means do matching check for modules. "-f" option means force loading. If you have a chance, try following command instead original one. (modify fwstart also required) # fwinsmod -f /opt/CPfw1-41/boot/modules/fwmod_smp.2.2.x.o kver=$kver To do this, you can load smp kernel module with several warning msg. I'm not sure that module works fine in such condition but I found uni-kernel module also mismatched but works fine. regards. /* IBM Japan,Ltd. */ /* IGS, e-Business Enablement Services / ERS-J */ /* Koichiro Watanabe */ /* E_Mail : [email protected] (Notes) */ /* [email protected] */ ---------------------- Forwarded by Kohichiroh Watanabe/Japan/IBM on 2001/06/26 07:22 PM --------------------------- To: Tomomi Furukubo <[email protected]>, [email protected] cc: From: Kohichiroh Watanabe/Japan/IBM@IBMJP Subject: Re: [FW1] Firewall-1 on Redhat 6.2 (Document link: Kohichiroh Watanabe) Hi forks. Did you check /var/log/messages about this failure? More detailed information will be stored there. The problem might be caused because FW-1's SMP kernel mod is designed especially for kernel 2.2.14 but RHS 6.2 uses 2.2.16.

I'm installed and set Firewall-1 V 4.1 on Linux (Redhat 6.2 SMP) But starting Firewall-1,a error is shown and it doesn't work at all. The errors as bellow: [root@x ]# fwstart FireWall-1: Loading kernel module... fwstart: Loading fw-1 kernel module FW-1: insmod failed And these InterfaceCard are installed on Firewall-1 PC. Intel Ether Express 100 (eth0) 3com EtherLink 3C900B-COMB (eth1) Could someone help me to solve this problem ? ================================================================================ 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 ================================================================================
