Man, my dive into Nat VM has not been kind...
one problem fixed another crop up...
Now on fresh debian 10 i cant start ufw

Is it Openvz problem?
not familiar with this module, google says openvz module
/lib/modules/3.10.0-957.12.2.vz7.86.2/modules.builtin.bin'

user@mrvm:~$ sudo ufw enable

prior to reinstalling Debian 10, ufw on debian 8 and ubuntu 16.04 works
P.S. im on MRVM SG node, running freshly installed Debian 10

    UFW is garbage and you should learn to setup iptables.

    @WSS I just need something fast for testing.
    i'm very lazy afterall
    hahaha.....

    Also, iptables (iptables-nft) seems not working too. iptables issue maybe?
    iptables-legacy not working too.

    i figured it out,
    I purge ufw and iptables, then install iptables first then change to iptables-legacy.
    after that install ufw.
    ufw seems to works only on iptables-legacy.

  • With the last Debian 10/Buster template, just

    • apt install iptables
    • update-alternatives --set iptables /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy
    • update-alternatives --set ip6tables /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy

    Now ufw should work fine

    The actual issue here is that iptables is not installed at all as standard in those templates.

    I am going to have to make a new template set with it included and distribute them, I think minimal went a bit far.

  • iptables-legacy? I thought iptables/netfilter was being replaced with something? :)

  • nftables is the default in buster, it seems

    The all seeing eye sees everything...

  • @terrorgen said:

    Ah, so, iptables-legacy is just the regular iptables with a tag to identify that it is now considered legacy (nftables being the new) ...

    Yeah,old scripts, like the openvpn installer script, dont work with nftables, just tested it. need to change to iptables-legacy

    I guess it breaks not just UFW, but many of the old scripts that uses iptables.

    I have found also that loading the modules on the host node which is el7 based for containers or be able to use nf* makes them incredibly unstable, I am sure it will be fixed over time.

    is netfilter set to full for this container ?

    vzctl set VMID --netfilter full --save

    it feels very un-Debian to me... these (breaking of older scripts) should've been caught in testing or unstable and not being released to stable until most of the popular scripts made accommodations to nftables..

    The all seeing eye sees everything...

  • The cutover to nftables default is such a pain. Kubernetes also requires reverting to iptables-legacy.

    ^this.

    @milkboy said:

    Quite likely.
    Do it with iptables, no matter that you're on OpenVZ.

  • And after you learn iptables, now you can learn the "new hotness" that is nftables....

    Yes, but I think a loincloth is better than no clothes

    i guess you did TL;DR.
    needed some quick and dirty method. i reinstall the OS on weekly basis to test software and find limitations of NAT VPS (I'm new to nat vps)

    Yup

    feels like debian to me. I remember sytemd breaks a few things on jessie when it was release, it just takes time to iron out
