[09:06] <ubottu> surfn: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience
[09:06] <valdur55> :) What is your problem?
[09:07] <surfn> don't really have one...
[09:07] <surfn> What firewall prog should I use?
[09:07] <surfn> (it's more advice seeking than a problem isn't it)
[09:46] <Mkaysi> !ufw | surfn
[09:46] <ubottu> surfn: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE from Lucid onwards) also exist.

[19:04] <joossee> How do I mount an encrypted home directory stored on a USB stick? I've tried the "Access your private information.dekstop" link and the ecryptfs-mount-private from the command line but nothing happens. It is an encrypted home directory that I need to mount from my current machine. Any help greatly appreciated.

[20:00] <subman> How do I install the pae enabled kernel? I assume that Lubuntu comes with the non-pae kernel?
