I have updated the original description to remove any possible
confusion.

** Description changed:

- Installed Hardy Heron Beta on a Fujitsu Siemens E Series Lifebook with
- on-board ethernet and PCMCIA WiFi (so the networking devices are eth0,
- ath0 and wifi0, though the WiFi is disabled). Everything seemed to work
- OK. Every day there was a bunch of updated packages. I have been
- installing them regularly. The only thing I installed manually (i.e.
- apart from the automatic system updates of stock Hardy Heron) was aranym
- - "aptitude install aranym".

  I haven't configured anything anywhere.
  
  Sometime later the networking suddenly stopped working. One day
  (08/04/10) I simply booted up the notebook and eventhough it got the IP
  address/route/DNS etc. via DHCP correctly nothing else worked. Even ping
- to my gateway reported a permission problem! Much later and with fairly
- less hair left I found out that "sudo ufw disable" fixes the problem -
- but only until next reboot. Then the networking is blocked again.

  The iptables -L after reboot is as follows:

  ========================================
  
  Please note that plain "iptables -F" does not fix the networking
  problem. Only the "ufw disable" does fix it. I have no idea where this
  problem originates. Is there something I could try to find the root
  cause?
  
- BTW, I think this is very similar in nature to #36019 - only that guy
- used "firestarter stop" while I found the "ufw disable".

  Thanks
