This is my first time setting up an Ubuntu Server (14.04 LTS) and I am having trouble configuring the firewall (UFW).

I only need ssh and http, so I am doing this:

sudo ufw disable



sudo ufw reset

sudo ufw default deny incoming

sudo ufw default allow outgoing



sudo ufw allow 22/tcp

sudo ufw allow 80/tcp



sudo ufw enable

sudo reboot

But I can still connect to databases on other ports of this machine. Any idea about what am I doing wrong?

EDIT: these databases are on Docker containers. Could this be related? is it overriding my ufw config?

EDIT2: output of sudo ufw status verbose

Status: active

Logging: on (low)

Default: deny (incoming), allow (outgoing), deny (routed)

New profiles: skip
