We should reinstall our development environment boxes once in a while and fakefas was last reinstalled in December 2011. We also discovered that fakefas did not have iptables applied to it so it was a bit more exposed than we'd have liked. Both good reasons to reinstall it.

I've contacted the people with accounts in the fakefas system so they're aware that we'll be doing a reinstall in the near future and they'll need to recreate any accounts and groups they need for testing then.
