Hi all
We just had an issue when updating our system - namely 'base-firewall'
We simply lost connection to the server and one have to connect a 
monitor/keyboard to gain access - 200 miles from the server, not funny 
at all ;o).
We had a similar situation with another server when updating the 
'base-firewall'.

In both scenarios we did disable the firewall prior to the update to 
avoid the situation - guest that didn't work ;o)

I'm wondering if the update is enabling the firewall even thought it 
has been disabled through the UI?

Anyway be careful if you're using the 'base-firewall' when updating.
