LOL sorry, apparently a software upgrade changed "close window" to "send immediately". (Perhaps I should write another howto for preventing this...) So, second attempt: 1) Start a tmux session (so you won't lose your shell on disconnect / timeout) and make sure you're root 2) type the following: 'shorewall start; sleep 5m; shorewall clear' voila, worst case scenario is that you have locked yourself out for 5 minutes. You can add all kinds of logging into shorewall to make sure that being locked out happens only one time.
