Description David Mansfield 2008-05-19 17:51:07 UTC
Description of problem:

I wanted to disable the firewall.  I ran system-config-firewall as root,
selected 'disable' and 'apply'.  

Showing firewall with 'iptables -L' still shows active firewall.

'service iptables stop' did the trick as usual.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. start with default F9 configuration
2. run system-config-firewall
3. click disable,apply
  
Actual results:

iptables -L still shows active firewall (and it is blocking stuff)

Expected results:

no firewall.

Additional info:

Needed to disable firewall to be able to browse remote cups printer queues. 
Just lazy I guess.
