I personally backup the entire conf and lib
directories and then ftp them to another box on a daily basis just to have a
current copy.
#cd $FWDIR/conf
#tar clf - . | compress >
/tmp/conf.tar.Z
#cd $FWDIR/lib
#tar clf - . |compress >
/tmp/lib.tar.Z
For specifics on FW1 config
files go to www.phoneboy.com
and Search the FAQ's for " What files should I
backup? "

[FW1] Backup and Disaster Recovery
Greetings,
We are currently running a single firewall
box. In the event of a disk failure or any other disaster; I would like to be
able to re-build using our existing rule set, objects, and services. What file
systems do you recommend backing up to speed up a possible rebuild or just
create a fail over box?
We are currently running CheckPoint 4.1
Sp4 on Solaris 7.
Thank you for your time,
David Frank
