RE: [FW1] What the hell do I need a PW for to dld a SP

[Alee Stevenson <Alee.Stevenson@FW1-NOSPAMsphinxcst.co.uk>]

Hi,

If the people who did your firewall install had done it properly then they
would have registered your Software Subscription at the time of the install.
If this is done with your email address (as it should) then Check Point
would email you your username and password within 5 days. As shown by the
following taken from the last page of the Check Point licensing procedure...

----------------------------------------------------
A Unique User ID will be emailed within three to five business days to the
User e-mail address submitted during the registration process. 
This Unique User ID and password will be required to access and download the
latest product updates, 
releases and error corrections from the : 
Check Point Download Site
http://www.checkpoint.com/techsupport/downloads/downloads.html

----------------------------------------------------

Hope this helps

Alee

Did you register your Checkpoint software subscription service on their
website?  They will assign you a username and password to download after
you've registered.

Which I did.

But only the reseller can dld the stuff because CP doesn't give end users
(even if you'v paid for the upgrades on the yearly basis) a username and
password the the download area.

So I still don't see what it's worth.
