4.1 Policy install succeeds but the GUI reports a daemon timeout "Resource temporarily unavailable"

After the policy has been complied and sent down to the module a new session is started to the module. The manager then waits for 25 seconds (default) for confirmation from the module that the policy loaded correctly. If the module is low spec or the rulebase/objects is very large then it may take over 25 seconds for the confirmation to come back. By this time the manager has reset the connection and reported a timeout in the GUI even though the policy install was successful.

To extend the timout add the following line to the top of the FWDIR/lib/setup.C file

:fwd_conn_tout (###)
replace (###) with the number of seconds for the timout value

The file will then look like this:

(
:fwd_conn_tout (###)
:setup_version (300)
:has_iiicom (true)
