Guys,

Debugging an application which is falling over coming from one client's network. The URL is 999 bytes in length, so my gut feeling is that they have a firewall which is blocking long requests. They're running Checkpoint NG. Does anyone know if there's a default rule in there to do this, and what the trigger length typically is? Cheers.

can you ask them to turn on logging for implicit and explicit rules from your source address and see if / where the firewall is dropping it ?
