At home, I have Ubuntu server with the UFW firewall. What command do I type to turn on local intranet access to my web server, but keep the outside world out from my DSL modem?

    sudo ufw allow from <ipaddress> to any port <port number> where <ipaddress> would be your internal network and <port number> your webserver port default is 80.

I would guess something like: sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to port 80

$ sudo ufw default deny
$ sudo ufw enable
$ sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to any port 80

...where 192.168.1.* is my local NAT routing for my intranet (as in, my workstation is 192.168.1.5 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.).

  • yes that is correct 192.168.1.0/24 you should aswell make use of proto tcp which will make it accept only the webserver protocol instead of all available.
