I am installing the firewall for the first time and during installation progress, it stops at "Post-install configuration". any help would be appreciated.
I left the install overnight and it completed the install. It said to remove the CD and then reboot. when I rebooted it can,t find the hard drive. I am getting "boot failure, inser boot disk"
I figured what was wrong now Im having a hard time setting up the firewall in front of 4 port router. I have an OVISLink router and woulk like to set it up in behind the firewall. I set up one of the NICs to automatically get IP which it does from from ISP but the second NIC I can't seem to get to communicate with the router. Anyone out there from Canada that uses a router behind the firewall using cable modem?
I hope I'm not insulting you by stating the obvious, but have you made sure that the IP address of the NIC you're using to connect to the router, and the WAN address of the router, are on the same I.P. scheme? The simplest reason for failure to talk would be different subnets. . .
Another thing you might check is whether your WAN port requires a crossover cable (or ethernet hub) as opposed to a direct connection to the NIC.
Simple stuff, but easy to simply overlook. . . . [:$]
Of course, my other question would be, what is your reason for keeping a router behind the firewall? Do you need it, or could you maybe replace two boxes with one by establishing the route tables in ASL itself?
