A belated follow-up....
I'm wrestling with a similar problem which I believe is due to my
firewall object having the internal address. My license is keyed to the
external correctly, however.
If I simply change the address in the object, do I expect the whole
firewall to come crashing down? Rules to fail? Clients to disconnect?
Ancient evils to rise from their watery slumber? Or should everything
simply be ducky?
