Yep, if you used the firewall script it'll block 192.168.x.x ip's.  I personally use a second nic for backups/provisioning (no ssh connections from the public ip) and it's a real pain to have the local ip's blocked.  When you do an update or installation you should (in the future) keep your ssh connection open and attempt to create a new one.  As long as you maintain your current connection you can still change the firewall.  This would be good advise for the wiki too.

Subject: [qmailtoaster] firewall

Hi list
i have just installed a iotest box for qmail-toaster
am using fedora-core 5 and also an internal ip address (ie 192.168...)!
Now the problem is that i can't access the box using ssh, or even http://ip/admin-toaster/ , I cant even ping the box anymore! all this was possible on this box before i started installation! Could have the firewall locked me out? How can I reconfigure it(firewall)
 
Thanks
Alex
