Description of problem: Your system-GUI to configure firewall (Fedora 7), don't work! How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Finsih install. Before log into system 1st time, choose Firewall enabled, SELinux enforcing. Add ports for firewall, such as 18443, 5433 etc. 2. Log into system as a non-root. Go to Administration > Firewall and SELinux. ADD ports for firewall such as 5001. DON'T WORK! How can I tell? Because my e-Science software don't respond. Also when I telnet hostname 5001, that port can't be connected. Also when I go to Administration > Firewall and SELinux, port 5001 is not added. Repeat this step, it doesn't help. 3. Choose Fireall disabled, DON'T WORK! Choose SELinux disabled, DON'T WORK. Change back to SELinux = disabled, restart machine, repoeat process in step 2. DON'T WORK. 4. Use UNIX command to add firewall port. It works ok. In Fedora 6, all changes on your system-GUI are instant and effects are immediate. Expected results: Please investigate and fix this ASAP. Thank you very much. Additional info:

- Raise to high priority. Reasons: * In RHEL 3,4,5 & Fedora 4,5,6, there's no sucha problem. * Not everyone like using iptables. If you provide GUI, the intension is to make life easy. It's pointless if you provide such function & doesn't work. * Novell can get back in 1 days. Have no news from you in the past 3 days? Thanks a lot.
