Source files available vary between versions. Can someone elaborate on what the differences are between the files when both are present?
What are the differences between these two files?
Objects_5_0.C
Objects.C
And What are the differences between these files?
Rulebases_5_0.fws
Rules.C
Policy.W
This question specifically comes from an environment that is using Checkpoint version R65
They have supplied files with:
Rulebases_5_0.fws
Policy.W
Objects_5_0.C
Objects.C
When we import using Policy.W for Policy, and Rulebases_5_0.fws for Rulebases we get 876 rules.
When we import using Rulebases_5_0.fws for both Policy and Rulebases, and check the box for "Policy comes from Rulesbases_5_0.fws" we get 3415 rules. There are also a different amount of NATs as well.
So what is the difference between Policy.W, Rulebases_5_0.fws, and Rules.C?

Hmmm. The Expedition interface lists "Rules.C" as the new format.
So are the file versions like this?
Policy.W - oldest versions
Rulebases_5_0.fws - in between R65 and R75?
Rules.C - up to R80

Policy.W - oldest versions
Rulebases_5_0.fws - in between R65 -> R77.
R80 is database based so no file.
Not sure what the Rules.C file is. I do not have one on a 77.30 system here.
