Hi.
We have several Centos 5 firewalls in our company - they are all in
bridging mode.
We updated them to the latest Centos 5.x last night.
4 hours later there was a crash.. (previously it had never crashed - and
had been running for at least 1.5 yrs)
The crash occurred when someone added a rule, after rebooting it was fine -
the thing is it can't have been a bad rule as the first thing the server
does is load the firewall (same) rules..
In /var/log/messages I can see:-

Any ideas what caused this ?
Or how to investigate further ?
