Hi!
Well,
- "...your sudo-password is not popping-up...": If you enter the password in 
the last minutes, Ubuntu don't ask it ;) Can you try it in a new start up? 
(reboot).

- "...2 gufw-icons in my tray...": You run by menu, and you run by
terminal, then you have 2 icons, one with a old status (gufw not read
the status all time, only in the actions).

Please, if you use Jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04) update to Gufw 9.04.2:
http://launchpad.net/gui-ufw/gufw-9.04-jaunty/9.04/+download/gufw_9.04.2-all.deb

Thanks, and please, close the bug if is it solved ;)

Can't enable firewall by means of Gufw via the System->Preferences

Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gufw

I installed Gufw. After the installation I clicked on the new installed 
menu-item (System -> Preferences). I was not able to enable the firewall nor to 
make any of the settings (all grey). Then I opened the terminal-console and 
entered gufw. A dialog appeared asking for the sudo password. Then I was able 
to set up the firewall. I closed the terminal. I was able to enter Gufw (System 
-> Preferences) and to disable the firewall. After disableing the firewall all 
settings are greyed out again and I have to start gufw by means of the terminal 
again.

Why isn't the sudo-popup-dialog not invoked when you start gufw via 
System-Preferences? And why can one disable the firewall without a password?
