Dear all

I have enabled an smtp resource on all incoming smtp to the mailserver. Up till yesterday this resource was working fine. Yesterday smtp got dropped with the following error string "TCP packet out of state: First packet isnt SYN tcp flags: RST". The flags change between RST and SYN-ACK. It cant be attributed to a bad packet, because all incoming smtp is dropped. In an effort to recitfy this situation, I removed the smtp resource and installed the policy. Incoming smtp did come in but all the unwanted smtp came in as well. So I re-inserted the smtp resource into the rulebase and installed the policy. After this the log tab of Smartview Tracker did not display any incoming smtp at all, there are no dropped smtp packets either. The active tab displays incoming smtp. No incoming smtp arrives at the inbound queue of the mailserver. The spool directory in the firewall is empty. Telnetting to the mailserver on port 25 from the firewall returns the mailserver MTA version but the "Ch!
 eckpoint
 Firewall-1 secure ESMTP server " message is not displayed.

I once again removed the smtp resource and installed the policy. Now there are mail messages in the inbound queue of the mailserver, but all the unwanted mail is coming in as well.

Seems like the security server has just stopped working.

Smartcenter server runs NG AI R55 HFA-14
module runs NG AI R55 HFA-09


I am really stumped. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Regards
