[Bug 197322] Re: ufw should be able to add rules rejecting traffic

Thanks hendrik for your work on this. The hesitation in adding this feature was because ufw strives to be uncomplicated, and the difference between iptables DROP and REJECT is a subtlety that might have made things too complicated. That said, I believe it should be a part of ufw, and I have committ

[Bug 197322] Re: ufw should be able to add rules rejecting traffic

I would probably be able to produce another patch for ufw, init-script and the manpage, however, I am interested in the reason for possibly not supporting this in ufw. I would really like to use ufw some more; not being able to reject, not drop, traffic though can make problem-solving rather time-

Marking as triaged since the patch won't apply anymore. I'm still not sure this will be supported in ufw. ** Changed in: ufw (Ubuntu) Assignee: Jamie Strandboge (jdstrand) => (unassigned) Status: In Progress => Triaged -- ufw should be able to add rules rejecting traffic https://bugs

[Bug 197322] Re: ufw should be able to add rules rejecting traffic

This patch against /etc/init.d/ufw (Version: 0.13) modifies the init- script to allow a default policy of 'reject' for INPUT, OUTPUT or FORWARD. As REJECT is not a built-in target, the default policy for the table is set to DROP, but all traffic is rejected by two catch-all rules at the bottom of

[Bug 197322] Re: ufw should be able to add rules rejecting traffic

This patch against /usr/sbin/ufw (Version: 0.13) adds the options to specify 'reject' in a rule, specify 'reject' to delete a rule and adds the possibility to specify 'reject' as the default policy for INPUT, OUTPUT or FORWARD. TCP is rejected via '--with-reject tcp-reset', all others protocols v
