The problem exists if you have IPsec tunnels with the hostname, the
reload process fails to reload the firewall filters so IPsec never
negotiates.

edit /etc/rc.newipsecdns and add the line:

filter_configure();

near the end, this causes firewall rules to reload properly. We had this
issue too on 2 seperate clusters with about 300 tunnels.

Kind regards,

Seth
