Check Point Firewall: Adding A User In CLI

Here is a quick "how to" on adding a user in Check Point via command line (CLI).  It just as easy to go into the GUI and do this, but I have found that when I'm in CLI anyway and need to do this, this is a quick template for me. 

add user NewUserName uid 0 homedir /home/NewUserName
set user NewUserName gid 100 shell /etc/cli.sh
set user NewUserName password
(then you will verify the password you just typed in)
add rba user NewUserName roles adminRole (for adding an administrator)
save config

Been In NYC...

There are a lot of cool things about NYC. It's a place my family and I really enjoy coming to. From the Top of the Rock, you can see Trump Tower. It's the red, white and blue building. No matter which side of the fence you reside on politically, that's pretty cool.

Small Update

Sorry for the lack of posts. It's been busy. I have some technical things to post about, and will try to get them up soon. Just wanted to update. I hope you all are doing well.

Do The Right Thing

My wife and I went to Nashville not long ago to see a musician named Ron Pope. One of his openers was a group called Ages and Ages. They were really cool, and they had this song called Do The Right Thing.  Click on that link and give it a listen.

Home Projects: Security Light

I just realized on that Cisco IP SLA catalyst config, that I didn't post the ASA config for it. I'll do that this coming week.
Until then, I'm getting tired of people coming around and lifting door handles in my neighborhood. Maybe a new security light will deter them. My driveway light just didn't work, so I replaced it today.

Home Projects: Pictures On The Wall

Well, getting the frames straight on the wall isn't easy. But with a little effort, you can do it.
