SQL and FW-1

[CKosar () dncusa com]

I have an interesting issue.


LAN A                                  Frame-relay                 LAN B

  |            |                                                   |

SQL srvr                          Firewall
                                                  |
                                                  |
                                            router
                                                  |
                 |
                                        INTERNET

When the SQL server has a default gateway of the firewall, LAN B cannot
access the SQL server.  But when the SQL server has a default gateway of
router A, LAN B can access it.  The firewall has static routes for LAN B as
well as routes for the Frame network.
LAN B can ping the firewall successfully.

The firewall does not have static nat configured for the SQL server.
This problem starting happening AFTER  I installed checkpoint fw-1.
I guess the real question, does anyone know if there are issues with SQL
and FW-1?
Also, this seems to be happening only on two SQL servers, not the PDC, BDC,
or any other NT server.
