Firestarter is an easy to use firewall for Ubuntu that includes a GUI administration tool. Installation of this firewall is as easy as using it. In this HowTo we will cover how to install the firewall. Open a terminal window, and type in the following command:

# sudo apt-get install firestarter

# sudo /usr/sbin/firestarter
