I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. I'm expecting my current rules of "denying all incoming/outgoing" to cripple anything network related, but it's not.

First, I did:

sudo ufw default deny incoming

sudo ufw default deny outgoing

And then I checked it:

sudo ufw status verbose
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: deny (incoming), deny (outgoing)
New profiles: skip

Looks good, and then I reloaded it:

sudo ufw enable

sudo ufw reload

sudo service ufw restart

Yet, I'm able to post this on the interweb and do everything else.

    What does `ufw show raw` say? According to the manpage, `status` doesn't show "hardcoded" rules from `/etc/ufw` so you may have some defaults configured there. – DerfK Mar 03 '11 at 00:49
