Huh - you want linux distributions to have to play with the windows firewall rules? You want windows firewall getting messed up by linux containers?
These VPN authors are just idiots - let's stop over complicating things. Half the time people LIKE that they can use linux firewall features on their linux hosts for stuff.
- MiroF 6y agoNo, I'm pretty sure that is the exact opposite of what they are saying. Maybe work on your reading comprehension?
- donor20 6y agoHere is what they say is the "leak" "How it leaks WSL2 uses Hyper-V virtual networking and therein lies the problem. The Hyper-V Virtual Ethernet Adapter passes traffic to and from guests without letting the host’s firewall inspect the packets" So they are complaining that the linux subsystem and distribution packets are not processed by the windows firewall. I don't know what to tell you, but the idea that the windows firewall should be in the mix on a fedora distro seems a bit rediculous?
- MiroF 6y agoYou didn't reply to the article directly, you replied to a comment on the article - one that was making the exact point that you are repeating.
- donor20 6y agoI thought they were saying microsoft needs to document this third party software behavior. Definitely the VPN folks should document this.
