fwrestart: A way to more safely re-load firewall rules remotely

Name:fwrestart Vendor:
Version:1.01 License:GPL
Release:4.al2 URL:http://www.tummy.com/Community/software/
Summary
This program can automatically detect when changes to the firewall block the administrative shell session, and to take corrective action fwrestart uses terminal auto-response codes to safely re-start firewall rules over a remote shell session. It sends a request to your terminal (xterm, for example), which responds back automatically. When that response is received, ensuring that fwrestart can communicate with the terminal, fwrestart then issues a command to restart the firewall. It then tries another request to the terminal, and if that is not received within 5 seconds, a command is run to clear the firewall and an appropriate error is generated.
