Re: Backup Checkpoint Firewall

You might want to check out Phoneboy's excellent Firewall-1 site for more 
details, but what we do is to copy objects.C and our ruleset file from the 
fw directory to a different machine. You can always recompile the ruleset 
later if you need to recovert it.

If you want the overall configuration, take a bckup of the whole 
directory. I believe there's a config.C as well in there.
