Hello,

I want to disable firewall or be able to run it with couple of ports open for outside (exp: port 23). However, when I go to the Security Level Configuration interface and I change "Security Level" from "High" to "No Firewall" or from default to custom and change the options and then save it I don't get these changes really effective when I access the interface again. After saving and reopening the "Security Level Interface" I get the default configuration. Is that a bug or there is another way of actually configuring and controlling the Firewall on Red Hat 8.0.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Les
