Title: RE: [FW1] setenv and permissoins

"setenv" is a csh command.  In bash, use export.  For example,

export FWDIR="/opt/fw"

or whatever your firewall directory is.

Regarding the "permission denied" on rulebases.fws - are you root?  And why are you attempting to modify this file directly?

Please let us know what further help we can provide.  Thanks!

Dan
