First mistake:
your security administrator relied on the firewall for protection.
It is an _aid_ to security; not the 'be all and end all'. IOW, the hosts
weren't hardened to resist penetration in case the firewall didn't cover
it.

The problem:
drivers change their detection schemes; and changes in the kernel can
change the order in which devices are assigned names.
For example, the DAC960(?) drivers changed their order of
detecting controllers, and I did _not_ have fun, given that the machine in

Well, the situation is improving, I suppose ...
Under kernel 2.4.0 and 2.4.1, a dd of about 1 4k blocks would cause
the system to go technicolor and lock up.
Now, under 2.4.1-ac13, at about 11000 blocks, it goes technicolor, but
doesn't lock up until somewhere between 13000 and 2.
