I'm pretty new to Firewalls but I had to take over a job from a firewall expert who left the company. I installed the AltaVista Firewall V2.1 on a Alpha 3000/300 (one network interface, just for playing around here...) under DUNIX V4.0 (and later V3.2G with the saem effect). I followed the instructions in the installation guide (installed a vanilla UNIX, enabled C2 etc.). When the system rebooted, it came up with DFWNetscape which tried to connect to localhost:8314 forever... This means that I couldn't continue with the installation as I didn't get the Firewall GUI. The daemons (httpd, httpd-child, www-proxy) were up and running as far as I can see. Some network expert told me to bring up the loopback interface (lo0) with # inconfig lo0 inet 127.0.0.1 up After that I could connect to localhost:8314 and got the AVFW GUI but it wasn't mentioned in the installation guide and so I wondered if that is just a workaround and probably not the real solution. I was searching through this conference and was surprised that nobody else had the same problem... Can anybody shed some light on this ? Choo! oli

Hi, Like you I had the same problem. The only thing you have to do is to configure the serial line interface (SLIP). Restart everything and ... [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||
