Re: [FW-1] Policy problem



Eric,

  Sorry but I don't get you on this one, you seem to tell me that you
 have 3 Firewalls, 2 of them are in HA and one is a standalone one. When
 you try to load a security policy to one of them it fails because of a
 problem with the authentication, right ? How did you do the putkeys on
 all the modules ? And on the Management Server ? I have done a very same
 setup for one of our customers and it works like a charm, we even have a
 remote Firewall with a cold stand bye one who works fine too.

Met vriendelijke groeten - Bien � vous - Kind regards

Hi Guy, managed to find the fault, I used fw putkey -n to specify the
interface.

I still have a related problem with putkeys.
I have have 2 fw nodes in failover and a single node protecting another
network.
They both share the same management server as the master.
I have to redo the putkeys to one of them when I want to install a
policy.
If I redo to other fw nodes the other breaks with unauthorised action.
So whenever I want to make a change I have to first redo putkeys on the
node I want.
Fortunatley I use the one more than the other so I don't have to do it
too often but it is still a problem

Any ideas
Thanx
Eric

Eric,

  When you fetch the security policy from the Management Server, take  a
look afterwards in the $FWDIR/state directory and see if the files that
are located in there got changed, updated. These are the ones, as far as
I  know, that will contain your new security policy.

Subject: [FW-1] Policy problem


Hi All
I have a CP4.1 problem relating to the installation of a policy. I redid
putkeys between management and fwm and both adknowledge new key after
fwstop\fwstart I use a fw fetch to management and a policy is copied
with a recent timestamp.

However the rulebase changes are not applied. The old rulebase remains
active. I have checked object.C rules.C on the fwm but the rules are old
but the timestamp is new. I have also done a fw unload on fwm issuing a
fw fetch which retrieves fine. I understand that the policy gets
complied when clicking install in policy editor which it does. It copys
the policyname.W to policyname.pf but why doesnt the fw fetch get the
correct one? I run fw fetch x.x.x.x (management) and it does get
any.all@policyname.

I don't think it is authentication problem cause fw fetch works fine. We
use a fw fetch because the policy editor GUI's authentication problem
between the nodes. Not sure if this is the cause here? (putkeys I know
but it donsnt fix
this)

Help?
Thanx
