Title: RE: [FW-1] Merging objects from one fwall to another
Michael,
I keep our live and backup firewalls "synchronized" by copying the *.W, *.pf, *.C, and rulebases.fws files from the live to the backup. The 2 boxes must be at the same version and build.

Subject: [FW-1] Merging objects from one fwall to another
I also have a need to do some merging!
I have an old 4.0 firewall cluster and we are migrating the rule base one
rule at a time, one object at a time, one service at a time, from the old to
the new firewalls using the GUI-client.
This is extraordinarily time consuming and painful on my eyes and right
index finger (click, click, click...). It even hurts my brain!
I tried to copy some objects from objects.C in the old to the new firewalls
but I got "out of scope" errors when I tried to restart fw-1 on the new
firewalls. So rather than break things I just returned to my original
objects.C file and accepted my fate. That I would have to do it via the GUI.
Does anyone have a technique for merging objects from one objects.C to
another.
I have many, many special services configured along with many objects along
with many rules.
Being able to merge at least one of these groups would be a huge benefit.
Thanks
Mike H
