YDL 3 SecurityLevel stuck at High:Default Rules

[ghannon at cspi.com]

What you report sounds like a bug somewhere in the tool
or the configuration, and I can't address that.

You don't say what you are trying to do optimally, but if you just
want to disable the firewall completely, you can go into

Main menu
   System Settings
        Server Settings
             Services

And shutdown the firewall by disabling and shutting off

     ip6tables
     iptables
     ipchains

That seems to work between reboots.

This would probably only be appropriate if you are on a network that
is already behind a firewall.

Subject:  YDL 3 SecurityLevel stuck at High:Default Rules




No matter what I do with redhat-config-securitylevel...
the firewall stays stuck ON, default rules... the GUI comes up, and I
can set and save other options like non default rules or even turn off
the firewall, and the GUI happily says it's saving that status and
changing the firewall rules IMMEDIATELY, but every reinvocation of the
redhat-config-securitylevel defaults to high security default rules,
and I still can't do much networking.
