how to start CA Daemon

[vijayant]

when i doubble click the smart center server icon in dashboard I get this.

unable to contact ca on the management station, pl make sure ca daemon is running

in smart server > general properties> Communication DN is blank and disabled.

I am using R55 15 days trial version on win server 2003, Enforcement module and Smart server installed on the same machine.

Please guide me ...

mmh strange, but you said you have module and smartcenter on same machine? Why do you have a Smartcenter object in Dash??? Should only be one object!

Hi

As I dont have a license for checkpoint and I am not sure whether distributed environment will be supported without license or not so I configured the checkpoint that way.

I find a lot of messages in smartview related to DAEMON, is there any way to manually stop/start them or control it any way...

Thanks

With eval license any setup is possible whether distri or stand-alone, does not matter. How many objects do you have in the Checkpoint tree in smartdash?? There should be 1 which is your smartcenter and module. Did you started checkpoint config all the way till the end??
