Bug Description
After `iptables --flush` neither using `ufw reload` or `ufw enable` commands won't solve the problem caused by `iptables -f`. ufw blocks all connections.

Thank you for the report.
`iptables --flush` is modifying the firewall outside of ufw and it removes firewall state, which is why you are seeing this. If you are doing this, you can instead do:
$ sudo /lib/ufw/ufw-init flush-all
$ sudo ufw disable
$ sudo ufw enable
(you can also do the first instead of `iptables --flush`).
