10.10, Firestarter
Hello
I would execute Firestarter. But if I execute it, I'll get the error-message
Insufficient priveliges. You must have root privileges to use firestarter.
But it's also possible to execute Firestarter as a normal user. In this case I should update th file /etc/sudoers. But the update is not possible and I get the error-message
The document could not be saved, as it was not possible to write to /etc/sudoers.
Check that you have write access to this file or that enough disk space is available.
What do I have to do to get the write access for /etc/sudoers? Now only root has this permission. Thanks in advance.
Peter

Don't edit sudoers and please do not use firestarter. it isn't maintained for several years now.
Purge firestarter, and use GUFW, which is a great way to manage netfilter (the actual firewall) via iptables.
so: sudo apt-get purge firestarter
sudo apt-get install gufw
sudo ufw enable
