Re: [FW-1] Nimda Uri



Title: RE: [FW-1] Nimda Uri

If the web servers in the DMZ have static legal ip address (not private 10.0.0.0, 172.16.0.0-172.32.0.0, 192.168.0.0) then you shouldn't have any problems. But no matter what you must make sure that the Web Servers in the DMZ can handle connections even if there are no HTTP-Resources and stuff like that. Just make some rules permitting traffic to the WEB servers (do not use URI) and try to see if it works. If it does work unload the policy (unplug the cables from the Web servers before doing that), reload the policy, delete the uri resources and the web servers objects, install the policy, create the URI resources and the Web servers objects, create the rules at the TOP of your rule base (1. Nimda block, 2. HTTP permit), and install the policy again. If you say that the rules work in another FW with clean install then i suspect it has something to do with the Network Objects (the Web servers objects). It is rather a strange case... What happens to you now has happened to me 1 year ago. We tried to do the same things as you did and had the exact case you did (the same result). What did i do? I reinstalled the FW from scratch (FW and M$ server). If you decide to reinstall the FW and M$ server keep in mind that you should back up first the "Conf" directory, so you will not have to create everything from scratch again... Give a try at the "No URI" thought and let me know. See ya.

Dimitris,

I'm wondering if I have to enable static NAT in order for it work, is this
the case ?
