Enabling it with a default deny and no SSH rule is # the classic lockout. # # HOW TO UNDO IT # sudo ufw disable removes enforcement entirely, or delete a rule by its # number with sudo ufw delete N. # # Walks the fix one step at a time and asks before each. Steps with no # command are yours to do -- it prints those and waits. DRYRUN=1 prints # without executing; UNATTENDED=1 does not ask. # # -------------------------------------------------------------------- # NO WARRANTY - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK # # This script is provided by JbTecWiz as-is and with no warranty of any # kind, express or implied.
