Problems with FreeS/Wan and CheckPoint FW1
Hi everybody, i'm having some problems with a setup using freeswan and fw1... i have 12 nets that i'm accessing through 12 different tunnels passing by 5 fw-1 gateways... everything seems to be all right, but from time to time (1 - 2 hours, normally), some of the links stops the traffic. if I restart the problematic tunnel, everything comes back to normality i'm using suse 7.1 with downgraded kernel and freeswan to match the 7.0 version (the 7.1 freeswan's pluto was dying with segmentation fault some time after starting it) i followed the checkpoint howto to configure the linux side, the fw1 side was configured by someone else (the gateways are in a hosting company in another state). they said they followed the howto instructions, also. does anybody use the combination of freeswan and fw1 ? did anybody have a similar problem (all traffic from the tunnel topping suddenly ?) (with freeswan) Thanks in advance, Adilson RIbeiro

Without any error messages? Bad.

We run some tunnels from 7.1<->7.1 without problems. We have there only a few GB per month, maybe you got problems on high bandwidth? I saw no crash of pluto. This may be a hardware problem, too. Maybe you should compile some kernels. If gcc sigsegv then you probably have a hardware problem...

could you check if "suddenly" takes place while rekeying? Maybe theres a problem?! oki, Steffen -- Dieses Schreiben wurde maschinell erstellt, es trägt daher weder Unterschrift noch Siegel.
