Default Re: fw logswitch fails to create file

No I have not.

My understanding is that the GUI only refers to the underlying command. Which would be the same as running it from the command line. At this point in time I have raised a case with Checkpoint who appear to be equaly perplexed by this issue.

Today I tried simply the following:

fw logswitch max

expecting that a file called max would be created (should be created with an *.log extension). This file would be the summation of the log file and three pointer files CP uses to log to before the switch occurs.

What I can see is that four new files are created (1 log files and 3 pointer files) and the old four files cease to be written to. But no file is created called max
