Yes indeed your update fixed my problem but...

Since the machine is here at home I decided to give it a reboot via the 
keyboard

# shutdown -r now

After it came up I was locked out of ssh and web (my network) 
keyboard/monitor is fine

Rebooted one more time just in case

# shutdown -r now

Same as before  locked out  of ssh and web (my network) keyboard/monitor 
is fine

After that I did this

iptables -L -n

and saw a couple of unfamiliar entries

so I did


iptables --flush

Bingo I am in

Something to do with the update?

Worried that the "unfamiliar entries" will return on reboot

Thanks
