Altavista Firewall98 SP3 broken on DU40D

Hello, I have made a test install of Altavista Firewall 98 on a DU40D box (with and without digital patch kit 5). After I install the firewall SP3 the screen function on the ethernet devices is broken. The following message is shown during boot: ioctl (SIOCSREENON): Operation not supported on socket Cannot set Screen Mode ON This means that after aplying this service pack the machine no longer does screening (packet filtering) and might even be acting as a router now since the forwarding on the firewall is (and should be?) on. This is fatal for security afcourse! Regular support through compaq and axent gave no help at all on this issue so far (altough is looks pretty serious to me). Has anybody else seen this and/or solved it? btw. I need SP3 because in SP2 the generic proxies are broken in a very bad way (among some other stuff).
