Firewall settings don't stick

(1/2) > >>

slvadcjelli42:
I've noticed that when using Redhat's "Security Level Configuration" tool to set firewall rules (redhat-config-securitylevel) in Redhat 8 it won't allow me to change them (No, it doesn't matter if I'm root, i'm sure someone is going to wonder about that   ;)  ). It acts as though they have been changed but displays the same default settings the next time I use the program. There is a hardware firewall between this computer and the internet anyway, so it isn't even really necessary... anybody know of a way to forcefully change / disable this?

raptor:
dont deal with 8 get 9!

Stryker:
what do u want it to be at?
what does the following command give you:

ls -l /etc/sysconfig

what are the contents of /etc/sysconfig/iptables
(or ipchains, not sure which it is...)

slvadcjelli42:
haha yes, I've been trying to (I actually have the ISO's but am having trouble burning them right now). I figured I was just doing something stupid, but... you think I won't have this problem in 9?

Stryker:
xcdroast is great, u try it?

and you dont have to go to redhat 9 to have things working... you'll have to excuse raptor he's been an avid windows user for quite some time. you posted a minute after i did so i dont think u saw my previous post.
