I am at SP5.

What interfaces do these if6 or if10 refer to?  Would it be the other 
machine since I have only 8 interfaces installed, or are these random names?

I have the inspection module running on the management station since it is 
the failover system, so shouldn't /dev/fw0 already be there?  Given that, 
shouldn't I NOT use the -n flag?

I removed the logtrack file.  It did have entries that looked like this:

961138741     961138741 
/opt/pkg/FireWall-1-strong.v4.0.SP-5/log/16Jun2000-23:59:00

with earlier entries for SP-3.  Now it has only one line that looks like this:

961520481     961520466

with no file name listed.

Now I guess I wait to see if odd interface labels reappear.
