Re: [FW-1] FTP Security Server caching IP address



Sorry I didn't include:

Check Point v4.1 SP5 on Nokia IPSO 3.4.1 FCS-5

We are working on a migration plan to FP3 but we're not there yet...

Subject: [FW-1] FTP Security Server caching IP address


I am trying to FTP to a server on a DSL line.  The host is using No-IP to
keep a DNS name current with the server's IP address but the FTP Security
Server is having problems with it.  Below is the log of a connection: (names
have been changed)

Finding Host x.y.z ...
Connecting to 65.0.81.119:21
Connected to 65.0.81.119:21 in 0.015, Waiting for Server Response
220 aftpd:Check Point FireWall-1 Secure FTP server running on bandon
Host type (1): Automatic detect
USER sname@[email protected]
331 aftpd: RADIUS password: you can use password@RADIUS-password
PASS (hidden)
413-aftpd:User fwname authenticated by RADIUS authentication
413 aftpd:Connection to 65.0.82.135 failed

Now the strange part is that this worked once, the first time I did it, but
now the 65.0.82.135 address seems to be cached somehow because even though
the internal DNS servers properly resolve the current IP (65.0.81.119) the
FTP Security Server still tries to contact the old IP.  I've looked on
Phoneboy but didn't find anything.  I think this could be stopping us from
hitting other FTP servers as well.

Anyone seen this before?
Thanks,

Paul Mills
