How to use Zenkit To Do on Linux to support your productive life - Real Linux User
I am a fan of productivity applications, like To Do and Kanban applications. In the past, I have paid attention to the open source To Do applications named Planner and Super Productivity, both of which I think are superb productivity applications for Linux, with both their own specific qualities. In this new article, I want to give an introduction to the To Do app from the Zenkit Suite, which is not open source and is only partly free. Although I think open-source as a concept is important, I am not an open-source purist. In my opinion, the availability of quality closed-source applications is of great importance for the wide acceptance and growing success of Linux on the desktop, because it can attract existing macOS and Windows users who already use these apps and simply can switch over to Linux without the need to immediately search for alternatives. In this article, I want to share how to use Zenkit To Do on Linux to support your productive life.

How to configure iptables on Ubuntu | FOSS Linux
The user-space application software iptables allows you to configure the tables supplied by the Linux distro firewall and the chains and rules stored in them. The iptables kernel module only applies to IPv4 traffic; to create firewall rules for IPv6 connections, use ip6tables, which corresponds to the same command structures as iptables.
The iptables program is a Linux-based firewall that is included with various Linux distributions. It is a prominent software-based firewall solution. It’s an essential tool for Linux system administrators to learn and comprehend. For security reasons, any publicly accessible server on the Internet should have a firewall activated. In most cases, you would only expose ports for services you want to be available through the Internet. All other ports would stay blocked and Internet-inaccessible. You might want to open ports for your web services in a standard server, but you probably don’t want to make your database publicly available!
