Hi all,
I've got some questions about Checkpoint Fw4.1

a). I installed my rulebase and everything works as it has to be... for a
couple of  days. Suddenly(nothing changed) I couldn't resolve any internet
names anymore (caching-only DNS-server) (al the rest is working) an I see
nothing unusual in the log's(no denied or rejected packets).  When I
uninstall the rule and put a rule that allows everything, it works again. I
didn't change anything in the implied rules. What could cause this?
(I run Checkpoint 4.1(2000) on Linux6.2 kernel 2.2.14-5.0.


b) I see something strange in my fw-log:

when people surf the web, everything is ok, but on regular base, I got a
"reject" for http, while the other packets of those connections
are accepted (what they should be). The interface who rejects is "daemon". 
See part of log below:


NO.   Date     Time       Inter.   Origin  Type   Action   Service   Source
Dest.    Proto.  Rule    S_Port
...
565 23aug2000 11:41:28  -> eth2    fwall  log    accept    http     client
dest     tcp     1       27772
566 23aug2000 11:41:28  -> eth2    fwall  log    accept    http     client
dest     tcp     1       27777
567 23aug2000 11:41:29  -> eth2    fwall  log    accept    http     client
dest     tcp     1       27772
568 23aug2000 11:41:36  -> daemon  fwall  log    reject    http     client
dest     tcp     0       27795
...

This happens very frequently (also with other protocols)...
Is there somebody who can explain what this mean?
thanks,

Tom
