Bug Description
Several locations in the documentation there is phrases like this:
On /etc/init.d/ufw start and 'ufw enable' the chains are flushed, so ssh will
drop. This is needed so ufw is in a consistent state. Once the ufw is 'enabled'
it will insert rules into the existing chains, and therefore not flush the
chains (but will when modifying a rule or changing the default policy).
While it *may* cause ssh to drop, it is by no means a foregone conclusion.
I suggest this is changed to "may cause ssh to drop" (i'm happy to provide a patch if required).
Places i've seen this:
* man page
* README
* https:/

Thank you for using ufw and issuing the bug. I have committed changes to the bzr and it will be fixed in the next release of ufw.
