[FW-1] AW: [FW-1] AW: [FW-1] FP3 on W2K - Memory leaks

[Arno Hechenberger <arno@FW1-NOSPAMCITYDATA.AT>]

Title: Nachricht

Hi !

 

I already used Win2k advanced Server english. The problem is to solve like one descibed two weeks later:

 

* Use Win2k SP2 and not SP3 !

* Always enable the two WMI Services even if you harden the OS. Otherwise the cpd Daemon will have the memory leak !

 

Greetings

 

Arno

Hi Arno!

You have to use the english Version of Win2k! I also had this problem on

different machines using the german version of Win2k and FP3. So take the

english one.....

Hi !

 

I've the same problem with 30 FW Machines. Win2k SP3 is installed and I will downgrade them. The othe hand: I've disabled all unneccessary services - Some of you said that is a big Mistake too ! (WMI is neccessary for GUI)

 

I will report later my expiriences !

I have seen this also. Ridiculous really. Another job well done by Checkpoint.....

Subject: [FW-1] FP3 on W2K - Memory leaks

I put a test box up on Friday and this morning the cpd.exe process had consumed 690Mb. Attempting to push a policy resulted in "No memory available" messages and lots of malloc error events in the event log. This box is passing little to no traffic - I was just testing connections to a Sonicwall using IKE (which also isn't working). I rebooted the box and have been watching the cpd process for the last couple of hours and it's slowly but surely consuming more and more memory. Appears to be eating about 6 megs per hour.

I'll open a ticket with Checkpoint, but I was just curious if anyone has seen this behavior.
