I've heard several people now say things along the lines of this -
i.e. installing any other package will void your support. However, I
haven't been able to find any documentation from Check Point that
confirms this. I have had conversations with Check Point engineers,
who have told me that I should be able to install (e.g.) the HP
management agents on SecurePlatform. They won't directly support the
agents themselves, but it does NOT void your support. Which seems
entirely reasonable to me.

Can anyone provide a link to a statement from Check Point saying that
the installation of any other package on SecurePlatform will void all
support for that system?

Hi,

Installing anything extra on SecurePlatform will void your support.

Subject: [FW-1] SecurePlatform on VMWare ESX: compile vmware-tools
drivers

    Hello,

 I'm running a SecurePlatform (R55 - build 110 - HFA 17) on a
VMWare ESX
server  and the vmware-tools are required to get better memory and
time
management on  Linux and also a clean shutdown from ESX management
tools.

 I got RedHat 2.1 perl and tools required to run the vmware-tools
installer but  I failed to compile loadable kernel modules as far as I
do not have the exact  configured kernel source tree for the running
kernel 2.4.9-42cp

 Where can I get that kernel sources ?

 Thank you in advance for your help
 Regards,
