It is possible to remotely administer your firewall or firewalls from an MS-Windows host. There are two programs for this, a remote administration program, and a remote key- and password-management program. Almost all of the features of the fwadmin program are also available in these remote administration programs.
To use these programs, you need to configure ports to use for the remadmin and keyadmin services in the Remote Administration Setup Screen. You then need to configure one or more TCP proxy entries for the remadmin and keyadmin services.
You can then use the programs to connect to a firewall on the appropriate ports. When a connection is established, Diffie-Hellman key exchange is done to set up an encrypted link, and the /etc/cequrux.cfg file (in the case of remadmin) or /usr/local/lib/keys/keys.db file (in the case of keyadmin) is transferred from the firewall to the remote. The file can then be edited offline, and then another secure connection an be established to upload it back to the firewall.
The remote administration programs can be installed by running the /WIN32/admin-setup.exe program on your CD. More details on getting up and running with the remote admin programs can be found in the quick start guide, in /docs/QUICK.TXT on your CD.
