ufw usage #32

Closed mewcrazy closed 1 year ago

mewcrazy commented 1 year ago

Hi,

I'd love to use your banlist in my setup. I'm already using the "ufw-bots" banlist with ufw: https://github.com/brahma-dev/ufw-bots

I'm quite new to Linus. Is it safe to additionally use yours with iptables? I'd rather not want to lose all my existing ufw rules.

AFAICS, ufw can be used in parallel with iptables/ipset, BUT... you have an option to use ipset/iptables in ufw-bots too (see: https://github.com/brahma-dev/ufw-bots/blob/master/files/iptables.sh), which would be even more "safe"

anyhow, ufw is a frontend to iptables (see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UncomplicatedFirewall). thus, there should be no problems in either case
