| vastkahuna | I am fairly new to Linux and was wondering does Ubuntu have a firewall built in or do I need to install one myself? | 00:48 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | !firewall | vastkahuna | 00:48 |
| ubot93 | vastkahuna: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | 00:48 |
| vastkahuna | OK so is it automatically turned on or do I need to do it myself? | 00:49 |
| holstein | vastkahuna: i suggest reading the info, and determining for yourself if your current sitution is setup as you want | 00:51 |
| holstein | i usually run "sudo ufw enable" if i want it on | 00:51 |
| vastkahuna | OK thanks | 00:51 |
| holstein | sudo ufw status should tell you the state | 00:51 |
| vastkahuna | Thanks a lot | 00:52 |

| veebull | hey there | 05:01 |
| veebull | recently reinstalled (x)ubuntu on my laptop this afternoon, and this evening I was re-joining various rooms in Xchat | 05:02 |
| veebull | but I get a message that I'm 'banned' from #ubuntu | 05:02 |
| veebull | any ideas on how to find out why/what for? | 05:02 |
| veebull | I asked over in #ubuntu-irc-council but it was a ghost town | 05:03 |
| duanedesign | hello veebull | 05:27 |
| veebull | howdy | 05:27 |
| duanedesign | @bansearch veebull #ubuntu | 05:30 |
| duanedesign | hmm. Ill ask in the channel for you what you should do | 05:30 |
| veebull | That'd be nice... btw, where would I normally run the above command irc command? Tried running it from the freenode server window, and it complained about needing to join a room | 05:32 |
| veebull | or is it a moderator/admin-only sort of thing | 05:32 |
| duanedesign | veebull: ok | 05:36 |
| duanedesign | veebull: join #ubuntu-ops they can help you their. | 05:37 |
| veebull | thanks, will do | 05:37 |
| duanedesign | veebull: night be an issue of an accidental flood from your client | 05:37 |
| duanedesign | veebull: good luck sir | 05:37 |
| veebull | duanedesign: well, they think someone with a 'similar' hostname was being a problem child and an op banned a block, which apparently included me. | 05:59 |
| veebull | have to wait til the op who did it is back on shift though | 05:59 |
| duanedesign | veebull: im sure they will get it sorted | 06:06 |
| veebull | hopefully | 06:07 |

| zryan | hi all | 22:53 |
| holstein | o/ | 22:55 |
| zryan | how to fix crash my system , ubuntu 10.04 LTS | 22:58 |
| holstein | zryan: desktop? | 22:59 |
| zryan | no laptop | 22:59 |
| holstein | zryan: install either 12.04 or 13.04.. 10.04 for the desktop is EOL | 22:59 |
| zryan | my laptop is older device | 22:59 |
| Unit193 | You can try a lighter flavor, if you'd like. | 23:01 |
| holstein | zryan: lubuntu 13.04 would be a nice solution | 23:02 |
| holstein | zryan: 10.04 is EOL... its not supported for the desktop (or laptop) anymore | 23:03 |
| zryan | 1GB of RAM and CPU is celeron | 23:03 |
| zryan | install ubuntu 13.04 to be slow | 23:04 |
| holstein | zryan: 10.04 is not supported anymore.. try lubuntu 13.04 | 23:04 |
| holstein | !lubuntu | 23:04 |
| ubot93 | lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 23:04 |
| zryan | HP Compacq CQ40-312-tu | 23:05 |
| Unit193 | I have a Lubuntu computer with 1G of ram, it's a P4. | 23:05 |
