Public bug reported:
Using Ubuntu Hardy Heron as server and ufw as firewall.
I have found that ufw is started before the iface is configured, so it's ok,
when your iface is enable, all your firewall rule is loaded.
*But* ufw is stopped before the iface !
So if you have a service running and locked by a rule in ufw (sample: ssh is
allowed only for a range of IP), when you are rebooting your service is not
behind a firewall until your iface is disable.
This is very insecure when you have an other services that take long time to
stop and it's between the halt of ufw and iface disable.
** Affects: ufw (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
