Re: [FW-1] Upgrading from Checkpoint 4.1 SP2 to NG FP3

It is that easy. The sequence would be:

- Upgrade to 4.1 SP5 or 4.1 SP6
- Run upgrade_verifier and fix everything (no really, everything) that needs
fixing
- Run upgrade_export
- Build Win2k box with NG FP3 HF2 or later
- Run upgrade_import

There are restrictions. Internal CAs are not supported by
upgrade_export/import ; you'd have to delete the internal CA first. And some
other caveats re hostname and IP (should match object name and be the same
across export / import), but those are all 'best practice 4.1' already.

Release notes are your friend :)
