Hi List,


One of the concern on this issue, is that this port is leaking information, 
telling others it is a checkpoint firewall.

        # telnet xx.xx.xx.xx 18264
        Trying xx.xx.xx.xx...
        Connected to xx.xx.xx.xx.
        Escape character is '^]'.
        ?
        HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request
        Date: Fri, 03 Jun 2005 10:43:03 GMT
        Server: Check Point SVN foundation/NG FP2
        Content-Type: text/html
        Connection: close

It is neccessary for the port to be openned. So what I should look for is the 
way to tuned the webserver not to return the checkpoint server header. 

I think it is not recommended by checkpoint to manually tweak the nokia 
webserver conf file, but is there anyone of you play with that before? 


Thanks
