Re: [FW-1] Mail relay stops working



Greetings!

I have a managment and an enforcement module with NG FP1 on solaris
platform. On the enforcement module there is a DMZ with my mail relay, a
FTP server and a HTTP server.  After 3,5-4 hours the relay stops working
without any error message, I cannot see mail traffic on the log viewer,
I can access the FTP and the HTTP servers and  I browse in internet
without any problem.  On the log of mail relay there is this message
"connection timed out with ..." for every mail that fails.  If I restart
Firewall everything works good for other 4 hours. If I change the
enforcement module with another ws with 4.1 there's no problem.

That is a known bug/problem for Solaris and CKP NG.


Short workaround: no need to restart - just up/down the LO0 (loopback)
interface whenever that error occurrs.

Solution: install a current Solaris patchcluster.
