Trying to set up Nginx in Ubuntu 16.04 following the tutorial given in https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-nginx-mysql-php-lemp-stack-in-ubuntu-16-04 everyhting is fine but running the command
sudo ufw status
gives inactive.
What is wrong?
Thank you
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw default deny
And I then do:
sudo iptables -L
Not Sure…

All I needed was:
$ sudo ufw enable
I then got the following prompt:
Command may disrupt existing ssh connections. Proceed with operation (y|n)?
After hitting “y” I saw:
Firewall is active and enabled on system startup
And sudo ufw status gave me the expected output.
ami también me funciono eso, lo que hubiera perdido sino hubiera encontrado esto.
Alternatively instead set up everything you can just use Ubuntu image with LEMP: droplets> destroy> rebuild> choose Ubuntu LEMP > REBUILD
However I face problem that UFW firewall NOT WORKING AT ALL for ubuntu images 16 (with docker) and 17 :

If you found some solution can you test that UFW really works in your case and give me some info?
Alternative2> Instead of UFW you can use Network Firewall accesed by diitalocean web panel
Well this might be quite old to reply but do remember to add sudo ufw allow 22/tcp otherwise you will not be able to do ssh into your vm once you exit out of it.
After “sudo ufw default deny”, I could no longer ssh into my droplet. I went to the Digitalocean console, logged in, and entered “sudo ufw default allow”. Now I can ssh into my droplet again.
Now “ufw status” returns “Status: active” along with some other information. Go figure.
Thanks BuyDeal. You had me worried, but all’s well that ends well.
