This is embarassing....

New install of RedHat 8.0.  I did a desktop with some custom additions.  I want apache running.  I want to telnet into the box.  I want to ftp to the box.  I am inside a corporate firewall.  I want no firewall running on Linux.

The box successfully get a DHCP ip address.  I can ping it from another box.
Apache works only within the box.  Can not be seen outside the box.
FTP refused by the box.
Telnet  "connectin failed".


During configuration, I said NO FIREWALL.  I saw iptables flash during boot.  I want to the GUI for security and attempted to select no firewall.  No luck.  I attempted to select custom and allow everything in.  NO luck.  I went into the configuration and stopped the IPtables service.  No luck.  I rebooted.  Did not see iptables during startup.  Went into services and IP tables remains unchecked.

What am I missing?  This stuff used to just work back in 5.2 and 6.0 days.

John
