Description ipf-tom 2017-03-23 18:29:24 UTC
How to reproduce:
(1) Create a host group.
(2) Create two firewall rules:
   (a) one with the host group as source 
   (b) one with the host group as destination
(3) change the name of the host group
(4) go back to the firewall rules

You will see, that the rule (2b) with the host group as destination does reflect the changed name of the group.
But the other rule (2a) still shows up the original name of the host group, which is not valid any more.

> Is this bug still valid?
Yes, I can reproduce the problem in IPFire 2.19 (x86_64) - Core Update 117.

Since Alexander used to work on the firewall CGIs, I am assigning this to him.

I tested this on a Core 157 system and followed the guide to reproduce this issue.

Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce the error, the changed group name showed up correctly on both rules.

It seems this bug report is not valid anymore - I'm going to close this bug, please feel free to re-open if this issue still exists.

Yes, the problem must have been solved meanwhile!
I did try to reproduce, but everything works fine now!
