How To Fix uruk-save: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu uruk-save is provided by uruk package.

uruk is:

Uruk is a wrapper for Linux ip[6]tables. A very simple shell script, but useful if you need similar (but not the same) packet filtering configurations on lots of hosts. It uses a template file, which gets sourced as a shell script, to get lists of source addresses, allowed to use specific network services. Listing these groups of allowed hosts and allowed services is all what’s needed to configure your box.

Main difference with other firewall setup tools: uruk is just a very small (just 14K!) shell script, no gui, no interactive setup, no default configuration. You’ll like this if you’d rather not have lots of (probably buggy) code between you and your filtering rules.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install uruk

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install uruk.

sudo apt -y install uruk

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install uruk
