Internal RFE bug #129467 entered; will be considered for future releases. When clicking on an entry, system-config-services should run "/sbin/service <service> status". In the case of iptables, it simply lists the tables. If this takes as long as you report, my guess is that it tries to resolve some IP addresses into names and runs into a timeout. Can you please check whether a manual "/sbin/service iptables status" as root takes equally long? I think you may be right; on the system I just tested, redhat-config-services takes 1 minute 50 seconds, "service iptables status" takes 1 minute. There is a difference of almost x 2. On the command line it seems to hang trying to spit out each of these two lines: LOG all -- 192.0.2.0/24 anywhere LOG level warning prefix `TEST-NET: ' DROP all -- 192.0.2.0/24 anywhere L I'm thinking about a way to keep the GUI responsive while a called script is in the works, but for the time being I have opened bug #129731 which addresses that iptables/ip6tables makes name lookups in the first place. Barring any problems in iptables scripts, this is the same bug as bug #120579. This seems to be fixed in system-config-services-0.9.1 as per bug #120579. Closing CURRENTRELEASE. |
