OK, I set it up and do a range of tests.  For comparison purposes I 
could compare to F18 with firewalld disabled but it would be lots easier 
for me to compare against the F17 host.

One more question, I would like to add the libvirt-1.0.01, 
NetManager-git20121130, and dnsmasq-2.65 updates.  Is this OK or do you 
want me to stick to what is in F18 only?

I am willing to put a bit of effort into this but I need guidance to 
what information to collect.

BTW, there is nothing in syslog.  Is there some extra logging that I can 
turn on for firewalld?  I do not want to play with the rules to add this 
logging because I honestly do not understand the firewalld rules.
