Title:
WSDD Package missing UFW application profile
Status in wsdd package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Certain packages include ufw application profiles making it easier for
the user to allow or deny the application through the firewall. The
one for the samba package looks like this:
$ cat /etc/ufw/applications.d/samba
[Samba]
title=LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix
description=The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
implements the SMB/CIFS protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve files
and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol is sometimes
also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
ports=137,138/udp|139,445/tcp
What's missing are the wsdd ports.
Modifying the samba ufw profile to include them would only make sense
when wsdd is finally made a dependency of the samba package. In the
interim I suggest that the wsdd package include it's own application
profile.
It would look something like this:
[wsdd]
title=Windows Services Discovery Protocol
description=Used to announce Linux Hosts to Win7+ computers while network
browsing in their File Managers.
ports=3702/udp|5357/tcp
Then to allow samba through the firewall the end user could run:
sudo ufw allow samba
sudo ufw allow wsdd
