Now I have seen on GitHub that firewalld is a Redhat/Fedora etc project. Are there any major disadvantages to running firewalld on Debian? I would rather install Debian than Fedora on R4S.
Does firewalld run as well on Debian, as Fedora/RHEL etc?
It is in the Debian repository and I run it on many Debian machines. Works fine.
Counterpoint: currently on Ubuntu 22:
root@ripper:~# firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent Warning: NOT_ENABLED: br0 success
This actually fails. --runtime-to-permanent is broken. When I looked into it, it was an old bug that was already fixed, and some time ago; but firewalld in jammy is still the version with the bug. I didn't look farther, to determine if Ubuntu is just passing along what's in the equivalent Debian release, or if they're just not bothering to update.
