    Resolved [RESOLVED] Opening PORTS in Ubuntu

    How do you open a Port in XUBuntu?
    Everything that has a computer in will fail. Everything in your life, from a watch to a car to, you know, a radio, to an iPhone, it will fail if it has a computer in it. They should kill the people who made those things.- 'Woz'

    Re: Opening PORTS in Ubuntu

    Based on this post: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverg.../firewall.html

    The default firewall for Ubuntu is ufw.

    You can open a port in ufw with the below command

    Code:
    sudo ufw allow 22
    Or to allow it only from a specific IP

    Code:
    sudo ufw allow proto tcp from 192.168.0.2 to any port 22

    Although they also mention you have to enable it, so maybe the firewall isn't on by default. If that is the case, you will need to deal with whatever you're using for an external firewall.

    If you want a GUI to configure ufw, try installing gufw.
