Below is a copy of the current running config. We have several issues. The device is a 506E purchased 2 weeks ago.
First, behind this firewall, I can not connect to another office using Remotely Anywhere (uses Java on port 2000). The webpage loads but the jave applet just hangs. Yet when I swap out the PIX with the old firewall (m0n0wall/FreeBSD) I have no issues. The current config is also almost the same as another office where I have no issues connecting to a Remotely Anywhere session.
Second, for some reason the PIX would not allow in/out access if the outside address was xx.xx.xx.204 with the static map to the webserver at xx.xx.xx.202. Once I swapped those everything works. Why would it matter which IP address is used?
Lastly, I configured this PIX via the terminal. Added in the access list. Upon testing I found out that inbound traffic was not working to any internal server (i.e. http). I opened up the PDM and from there saw there was nothing listed in the access list. I did a refresh to make sure . I then deleted on the terminal the ACLs and added them in via the PDM. Once that was saved I could have someone connect from the outside to the webserver. Looking at the config from the terminal, the lines are EXACTLY the same! What in the world would cause the PIX to ignore the what is in the terminal and follow that only which is inserted via the PDM? Makes no sense since in the end the PIX follows the config, so that really confuses me.
