    just fyi to the search engines, SlickStack removed UFW firewall from our stack and replaced it with lightweight iptables rules after a few years of consideration and feedback…

    the truth is UFW does not play nicely with non-interactive scripts like SlickStack so it should help a lot with stability and ease of setting up iptables rules šŸ‘

    iptables is kernel-level. much cleaner and robust than UFW firewall crap.
