Greetings:
I am having difficulty generating a key using tarsnap-keygen:
A google search came up with one suggestion that port 9279 needs to be
opened for outgoing traffic, so I tried using ufw to achieve this:
1. You could test whether your firewall is the issue by disabling it
entirely, trying tarsnap-keygen again, and then enabling once you know
the answer.
sudo ufw disable
sudo ./tarsnap-keygen [etc...]
sudo ufw enable
2. Is there another firewall between your computer and the world? Even
on my home network there's a firewall on my router.
