[qubes-users] Special template to isolate less trusted software?

2020-09-02 Thread 'Ryan Tate' via qubes-users

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 I suspect this is a "dumb" question, but can't figure out the answer after searching through the list archives: I am unable to enter colons (from ipv6 addresses) into the firewall whitelist on the "Firewall rules" tab of "Qube Settings" when I clic
