no chance to disable this
I'd be more inclined to ask what benefit we have to turning the firewall off
vs having a more permissive set of firewall rules by default. AFAIK,
turning the firewall on doesn't currently turn on any additional daemon --
it just sets up the defined rules.
I guess ip6tables too?
Yep.
Would you be willing to write up a Packaging Draft and add it to the FPC
tracker? If not, I'll bring it up in the Packaging Meeting on Wednesday
morning.
