The "fw_ipaddr: cannot get my ipaddr" means the firewall cannot resolve its
hostname. This is crucial to Checkpoint. Check out the hostname resolve
where ever you put it. Also try to do a nslookup? Does it work? Can you
resolve for the hostname of the firewall? This should point you in the
right direction.

Subject: [FW1] fw log stopped working?
Howdy,
I have a little script that generates an overview of all Internet traffic
from our site every night. Suddenly last night it started giving:
fw_ipaddr: cannot get my ipaddr
fw log close:
in stead of the normal output. Any idea what might have happened? How
concerned should I be?
Note: FW-1 4.1 running on Solaris 2.6. script is written in Perl and
basicaly
does a "fw log" and then parses the ouput.
Nico
