opensnitch-ui - GNU/Linux interactive firewall application
Contents
Description
opensnitch-ui is the OpenSnitch GUI to view events intercepted by the daemon, and to manage the rules.
The GUI is composed of 2 components in the same script: a server and a GUI. Once the GUI is launched, an
icon will appear on the system tray. If the system tray is not available or can't be used, the Events
dialog will be launched.
The GUI (i.e.: the server) will listen for new connections from daemons. You can have the daemon
installed on multiple machines, and manage them from a centralized GUI.
