RE: [FW1] when trying to load the rules, I get: Has only loopback (lo) interf ace, aborting



Easier method to do this would be to run 'fw ctl uninstall' and then 'fw ctl
install', this will unload/reload the kernel.  Once it's reloaded it will
automatically pick up the apporpriate interfaces.  One small gotcha is that
this unloads your policy so remember to push a policy once you do this.

Try this from Checkpoints Knowledge Base:

Error: "Has only loopback (lo) interface, aborting... Failed to Load
Security Policy: No such file or directory Fetching Security Policy from
localhost failed" (55.0.052)

1. Rename $FWDIR/conf/product.conf to inst.conf.
2. Run $FWDIR/bin/cpconfig. This will re-initialize the communication
between FireWall-1 and the interfaces.
3. Reboot the machine.

Good Luck.

Kevin
