    I remember 2.2 to 2.4 and to 2.6. Quite a lot of networking changes there and I wonder if lot of the complaints were people annoyed they needed to change firewall configurations and the like.

    If I recall right 2.2 had ipfwadm, 2.4 had ipchains and 2.6 introduced iptables we’re familiar with now. That was mildly annoying for me and I was a young geeky oik with plenty of time on my hands. It’d probably annoy me a lot more now.

      I remember being irritated having to switch from ipchains to iptables lol. “Goddamnit I just learned ipchains now you’re changing it again??”
