Is anyone else having a problem with the WWW access failing? My system runs
fine for a couple of days at a time and then it just stops allowing access to
web pages. Telnet, FTP, and everything else seems to continue to work fine. I
can't even get to the Firewall configuration web. (https://192.168.x.x:8443)
This has been happening ever since the last release.
My system is a dial-up and my provider kicks me off every twelve hours. I am
running squid but do not have any sites banned. I am also running snort. I am
not running dhcp. There is nothing in the logs about any errors.
When I try to go to an external site I get the error from Konqueror: Could
not connect to host www.mandrake.com
When I try to connect to the firewall configuration program I get: The
process for the https://192.168.x.x protocol died unexpectedly.
I have tried stopping squid but that doesn't fix the problem. The only way to
fix it is to reboot the firewall. I will try running it without squid and see
if that fixes it.
