https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW > Also, taking your "newbie-ishness" into consideration, it's worth noting that installing a firewall and securing a server are 2 very different things. Debian has a "harden" package, http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ch-automatic-harden.en.html and also a a detailed how-to on "securing Debian." http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ I hope that is helpful!
