Re: [Kerio 2.x] Kerio 2.2 Features (request)

Interesting, I'm not sure how to fix the code to fix certain problems, but when your settled there are a few bugs that should be fixed, like if you have a port listening on tcp only, kerio will prompt for any udp packets on the same port even though nothing is listening on udp.

This should be an interesting project, and you have got your first beta tester waiting.

The biggest error is sitting in front of your keyboard.

Hmm. Here's a question: How would this work for say a port scanner? Maybe this needs a checkbox ticked by default not a implicit rule.

Thanks for taking on this project... I have been using 2.1.5 since it came out, and recently when i bought a new laptop i installed it there----but it has a system destroying Kerio & Winxp & Toshiba Hibernate problem--so back to MSFT Firewall.

I know the Firewall is top priority, but i want to suggest, somewhere down on the line, PLEASE include the ability to Hibernate....

i'm anxiously waiting to try it----

thanks,
ron

The hibernation problem is also in a thread on the Kerio forum - could it be related to the version of XP?

I have a Toshiba laptop with Win XP Home edition/SP1 and Kerio 2.1.5 and do not have this problem in Standby or Hibernation.

i have no idea where the problem is---the laptop as mentioned is new, so it comes with XP SP2. My dell laptop with Win98 (not SE) has no problem with 2.1.5.

I also posted on the one thread at Kerio and on Yahoo group. there is no solution which works in all putrs... well the solution was NOT to use Hibernation!!

I'm using XP SP2 Firewall--i hope it continues to work!!!

I only posted this, so Ghost might consider Hibernation an "feature" once the Firewall is working and he runs out of things to do----

It would be of interest to know why it works on some platforms and not on others... since I have SP1 and you have SP2, that might be the difference (I assume you are using Toshiba Power Monitor)

In going into hibernation, XP creates a file named hyperfil.sys on the root of C:\ in which it stores the contents of RAM. Why that should bother Kerio is a mystery. Kerio does keep track of certain thing in RAM, but if that affects the ability of the system to "wake up" then why does it work on some but not on others? If the only difference is in the Service Packs, a solution might be difficult to find... it would require looking at all of the fixes that come with SP2.

I have a Toshiba s231. before i close the lid (which puts it in Hibernation), i close all programs i was running on the task bar. the other programs are still unning---Toshiba Power Monitor, ATI video controller, etc. As mentioned, the XP SP2 Firewall has no problems--at least for about a week now...

the real problem is it works on my putr sometimes. But when it fails, i get a bsod on reload--or whatever it's called when it comes out of Hibernation--which says a SERIOUS error has occured. this is documented over on the Kerio 2 forum. it also causes some other programs to crash/not run correctly.

one other thing of interest---In order to get my putr back running correctly, i must do a restore--not just an Add/Remove programs----EVEN if i do the A/R BEFORE any "Serious Error" occurs. This says to me something in the Registry is getting changed on Kerio install, but not getting restored to original value/deleted or?? when 2.1.5 is Removed.... I suppose it could be replacing a key XP file and not restoring during the Add/Remove.

Why don't you disable the XP Firewall and see what happens? Why would you need it if you have Kerio 2?

i never had the XP Firewall running when Kerio was installed....i just have run it since i reformatted/reinstalled to clean all the garbage left from the "Serious error".

I'm thru expermenting with 2.1.5. On my Tosh Laptop i'll use XP Firewall till Ghost sez he thinks it'll work with Hibernation. I use 2.1.5 on the other 2 desktops----

OK, I misunderstood that.
