The external interface name that it is looking for is the name of the card in the machine. This can be found by typing ipconfig /all and then looking for the name that is given for your external interface card. Put this name EXACTLY as it appears into the external.if file and when you recompile your rule base it should work properly. On Tue, 17 Aug 1999, Thomas Crowe wrote:

Net" <firewall-wizards () nfr net> Subject: FW1 on NT and setting the external interface I have a NT 4.0 server running FW1 and keep getting messages about not enough client licenses. I have traced this to not having the external interface set. However when I create and edit the external.if in $FWDIR/conf I still get the same problem. I have tried all of the following formats for naming the interface: The NT name (Cpqnet01), the FW bound name (FW-Cpqnet01), the name assigned to it in the gateway properties (External), I believe I even tried the IP address. All to no avail. Another part of this is that I ma protecting my internal LAN from multiple external wans/lans so how do I also assign multiple external interfaces in the external.if Thomas Crowe Production Network Systems Administrator BellSouth Online
