People don't actually try to run ubuntu _only_ from main do they?
They're
all in "universe" (including shorewall).

A quick follow-up -- I am trying to resolve some connection issues --
one of my programs keeps telling me that im fire walled on TCP and UDP.
I would like to TEMPORARIALLY (for troubleshooting) turn off the breezy
firewall completely (so it is doing NO blocking of any sort) so I can
determine where the problem is (ISP, Router, HW Firewall, Breezy
Firewall) -- I am from the Fedora Core world where 

service iptables stop

would do what I need, but breezy does not recognize the service command

how should I proceed?

Oh ya - the program im having fits with is GTK Gnutella

Thanks
