Yeah this happened to me, I didn't think twice about it thinking I did something wrong but realized now that I have never been booted before. Good thing I have a remote terminal. Did this go through [testing]? Just wondering if we could/should have caught this earlier; maybe we need certain things done with certain packages to certify their OK-ness. Especially with sshd, a remote restart is almost always a good check that covers a lot of bases. -Dan
