I have Cisco VMS 2.2 and IDS 1.2.3 running on my server. No problems. great program. then I added firewall 1.2.3 and now I have this issues.
1. When I log in to VMS, all of a sudden, my password no longer works. The deafult user/passwrod admin/admin works. really, that's no problem just that others might not panic if they run into the same problem. I do think Cisco should have posted a warning to that effect.
2. When I open Management Center and click on Firewall, I get a message that I am being taking to a secure site, but when I get to the next page, it is BLANK. Nothing. Just blank.
3. I noticed that the first time I attempted to open the IDS Sensor window remotely AFTER THE ADDITION OF THE FIREWALL MONITOR 1.2.3, I was denied access (error 443 or some kind of authentication related error message) I then went to log on to VMS locally, and was able to open the IDS monitor window. Thereafter, i was able to open IDS MC remotely.
Ia m begining to suspect that perhaps both problems (blank page & initial authentication problems to IDS MC) maybe realted to the openSSL bug that was mentioned in the installation manual for FCS 1.2.3.
I must also mention that at he very end of the fcs1.2.3 installtion (99%), I received error mesages to the effect that the installer "could not initialize PIX MC Database."
My questions are--
1. What is the most likely cause of the blank page I get when I try to open the Firewall app within VMS?
2. Does anyone have a "read me" file for proper installation for the OpenSSL 0.9.7d patch. I downloaded the file and installed the .pl file. Is that ok.?
I look forward to suggestions.
