Bug Description

Binary package hint: ufw

Hi all,
  I have ufw. I have been trying to use pidgin while enabling ufw. I have an account on gmail/xmpp which I have not been able to connect with whenever ufw is enabled.

This is the status of ufw status verbose

shirish@Mugglewille:~$ sudo ufw status verbose
Status: loaded
Logging: on
Default: deny
New profiles: skip

Attaching a conversation which I had on the #pidgin channel on freenode to troubleshoot the issue.

Please lemme know if any more testing needs to be done.

Thank you for reporting the bug and helping to make Ubuntu even better. While it seems clear that your firewall is blocking your packets, it is a problem with your firewall policy, and not ufw, the tool to help you implement the policy. This bug is being converted into a question. It sounds like you may need a separate connection tracking module for gmail/xmpp, or simply to accept packets from gmail's xmpp server.

Changed in ufw:
