[Bug 1540077] Re: Gufw not accepting subnet range in advanced firewall rule

 

Hello Costales,

When you say the last version, which specific version do you mean?  I am
a Linux newbie so not fully knowledgeable on updates and versions
unfortunately  :-( .  There is someone on linux mint forum who has tried
Gufw subnet with latest ubuntu 16.04 build with success (see here
http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=215465#wrap)  - was
this the latest version you were meaning?

Title:
  Gufw not accepting subnet range in advanced firewall rule

Status in Gufw:
  New

Bug description:
  This is observed in Gufw v14.04.2 LTS.  Creating a rule with a subnet
  in the 'from' field of an advanced rule results in an error.

  The example would be a requirement to only allow hosts in the same
  subnet to have access to a particular service (e.g. RDP) and so the
  'from' field would be set to a subnet of 192.168.0.0/24.

  Attempting to add the rule results in an error in the log of "Error
  running: ufw allow in log from 192.168.0.0/24 3389 > ERROR: Wrong
  number of arguments".

  Gufw appears to be trying to run the command: "ufw allow in log from
  192.168.0.0/24 3389" which errors but compare this with the syntax of
  ufw which would be "ufw allow in log from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port
  3389".  This works successfully so it looks like Gufw is presenting
  incorrect syntax for this configuration in this version.
