Thanks ermora. I will continue to look for worms, viruses and/or adware/spyware on the servers as mentioned in the previous posts.
Using PAT instead of NAT is something I will consider as well.
Thanks for you reply! This issue has been most frustrating. I was about to reconfigure the PIX from...
Symantec Antivirus version 10 corporate edition did catch a bunch of viruses and adware on some of the office PCs. I also ran Microsoft's antispyware beta1 which is a very nice application, and in some ways seems more effective than Adaware and/or spybot.
Still the internet dropped a couple of...
Hi Ermora,
Thanks for your post. Yes I have tried "clear xlate" and sometimes that has brought it back. Most of the time, however, clearing the routing table does not do the trick and a reboot does. What is interesting is that even when it fails, I am able to use the ping command from the...
I will work on the support contract and do the upgrade although i doubt a firmware upgrade can be done remotely... probably would lose connectivity. Worst case I drive there and do it after hours. I will let you know how it goes. I appreciate the help.
Ok so it does not look like there is a user limit issue. Can excessive bandwidth use make HTTP fail? wouldn't the VPN tunnel fail as well? Could port 80 be getting blocked somehow? I guess I could check that with telnet. Looks like there is no service contract or warranty on the firewall, so I'm...

Thanks for your reply Chris. There are 50 concurrent licenses so I don't think that's the issue (small office, about 15 people).
Would a rebuild of the script or firmware upgrades do anything? I will now check the sh xlate and sh conn and see what I get.
I should add that I am not at that location and that I have rebooting the firewall remotely with the "reload" command. Terminal Services works fine to their servers and of course drops upon the "reload" and then I can reconnect.
One thing I have not been able to try since I am remote is hooking...
My company uses three Pix firewalls at three office locations. The three firewalls talk to each other using a PPTP VPN tunnel. This works fine. However, one of the offices loses its connectin to the internet through HTTP, and only a reboot of the PIX brings it back. while this happens, the VPN...
