[Chicago] Digital Ocean, pip, and UFW on Ubuntu

[Aaron Elmquist]

Okay

sudo ufw allow 53
sudo ufw allow in 53

resolves the DNS issue (the host command still works).

sudo ufw allow https
sudo ufw allow out https

fixes the pip's https connection to pypi,* but is that not secure*?  Should
I just specify the pypi server directly instead?

Again thanks for the replies.  They are very much appreciated.
