I am currently configuring 2x Nokia IP530 running IPSO 3.6 and Checkpoint NG FP3. I have very stupidly removed the implied management rules and have added a normal rule but forgotten one of the services. The management station is now disconnected from the enforcement modules. I need to either modify the existing policy or just simply unload it so that I can push another policy. I have also considered modifying the rules.C file but I am unsure about this. I have tried fw uninstall but I think this only works on 4.1. The additional problem that I have is that neither of Nokias are management modules. Does anyone have any advice on how to work around this?

Console into the Nokia enforcement module, and type the command "fw unloadlocal". Once done, re-push the policy...

Thanks but I tried that and I received the error "This is not a management station"

"There are only 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary, and those who don't"
 
Then I'm not sure what to tell you. I've just tried it on my Nokia and it seemed to work fine. Here's the output if it helps you at all. My Nokia is purely an enforcement module also, with a seperate management server....

I used "fw unload local". You have written "fw unloadlocal" Is this correct? Without a space?

Thanks for your help.
