Public bug reported:

I just upgraded to Kubuntu 7.10 from Kubuntu 7.04. I have never run a firewall 
on my computer before, but for some reason, ever since the upgrade, all of the 
ports that I would normally have had services listening on (sshd and ICMP are 
two), are now closed. I can no longer ping or ssh into my machine, even though 
the services are running. Even worse, the python debuggers for Pydev and Wing 
IDE are no longer working, as they require an open socket on localhost to 
listen on! When I try to start the debugger in either of them, they just hang. 
Here is the output of nmap:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop$ nmap -P0 127.0.0.1

Starting Nmap 4.20 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2007-12-08 20:23 EST
All 1697 scanned ports on localhost (127.0.0.1) are filtered

Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 351.141 seconds

It certainly appears as though a firewall was deployed on my machine
during the 7.10 upgrade, perhaps in order to make my machine "secure by
default." It would be good if I could get confirmation on this, as well
as, perhaps, information on how to unblock these ports.
