the problem is between check point and the client. you need to go through
your policy on the fw and turn off passive mode in the policy properties,
and all your rules, also be sure to tell your clients to turn off passive
mode as well. we've had the same problem here at 3 of our sites using cpfw1
sp3. sometimes it works sometimes it won't. ensuring passive mode is
disabled everywhere is the only way it is reliable.

Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] connection reset
Not sure if anyone can help me here but I am having an issue with one of my
FTP clients, I am running WS_FTP Server on an NT 4.0 box with all the
current patches behind a checkpoint firewall all clients connect and
send/receive just fine but for some reason I have a client running an FTP
binary on a sco Unix box, their service runs 23:59 and when their system
detects data they send it now for some reason every few days I see in my FTP
logs a message from their ip address saying ftp session connect then 3
seconds later ftp session reset and ftp session closed for whatever reason
I realize they have lost their connection but there system does not get any
disconnect signal, it appears to be connected and could sit hours before
anyone realizes it is not working...has anyone experienced such a freaky
thing??? I think it is on the client side but since their software is out of
my control I want to exhaust all options on my side. If anyone has
experienced similar issues please drop me a note, thanks.
