RE: Checkpoint Firewall denying Explicit SSL

["TVB NOC" <tvbnoc () temeculavalleybank com>]

If I remember correctly, when I used to have these kinds of issues, I
would create an object for the device or server in question, and
associate the object to the services I would need to allow for
communication. 

Try that, this will hopefully bypass the security in smart defense...
Also, when you filter in your logs to that IP address of the server, do
you see smartdefense blocking or any other denies in tracker??? (I
should have asked you that first)

We have gone though that.  We did find an article that discussed
setting the rule to "FTP_BASIC", though that didn't seem to help
either.  The recommendation to set that came from Checkpoint
themselves, in regard to the error that we are receiving back from the
Firewall.

Nothing to be sorry about.  Your comments are very much appreciated.  :)

I would appreciate it.  Thank you kindly.  My efforts have come to be
rather fruitless...

We're actually down to the point that we are seriously considering
calling Checkpoint...  :(
