$FWDIR does not point anywhere

Question

I have installed Check Point R75.20 splat. Check Point firewall logs can be accessed directly by using OPSEC LEA. For that I need to have a LEA connection.

Now to set up a LEA connection, I need to do the following steps:

1)In the FWDIR\conf directory on the computer where the Check Point Management Server is installed, edit the fwopsec.conf file to include the following line: lea_server port 18184

2)...

My problem is that my FWDIR is not pointing anywhere. Furthermore, if I do a,

find / -name "fwopsec.conf"

I get no results. When searching for the problem, I found that,

FWDIR=/opt/cpfw1-r55

but i dont see any directory as such in my checkpoint platform

I am stuck. What am I missing? Thanks.

Answer 1

If you are facing any problems in locating object.c, object_5_o.c, and the rulebases file then you can try another command that has to be run in expert mode:

cd /opt/CPsuite-R65/fw1/conf

and then type

ls -l 

then you will be able to locate all these files, I too had this problem earlier in firewall installed on virtual box.
