Problems enabling GUFW, UFW in Debian
Hi. I have a problem with the unix firewall (gufw)
I'm using Linux Mint Debian Edition. The problem appears when I double click on the icon to bring it up for configuring. Everything is grayed out so I click on the "unlock" button. Normally, this is when gufw comes alive with color. But all I get now is a note on the bottom of the gray screen that says "Wrong Identification". Uninstalling and reinstalling UFW and GUFW didn't fix the problem. I would like to have my firewall working for me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. |
Maybe run from terminal as root ?
su - pasword gufw |
thanks for the help!
it worked, i just signed in as superuser and ran 'gufw' and it allowed me to open it up. take care |
:cool: Cool
