Hi,
After a fresh Fedore test 2 install I saw the firewall was enabled. I always choose disable firewall during installs, but of course I'm now not *100%* sure anymore that I did it also this time.
Anyone else seeing that a firewall is enabled even when choosing no firewall during installation?
Cheers,

Just want to say that I ran into this last night ... I did an install using the new FTP graphical option ... Everything went fine, but I noticed that I couldn't get into the machine from my other pc ... Yep, the firewall had been anabled ... I was pretty sure I had chosen no to enable it ... I remember the popup box asking if I was really sure if I wanted to proceed without a firewall enabled ...
I was going quickly, so I may have clicked the wrong option ... but it is good to read that someone else ended up with a firewall enabled after install when they were sure they had chosen not too.

Yes, this used to happen on RH 8 and 9, too, I remeber. Iptables is started, but I'm not sure, what rules it's using. Disable with redhat-config-services.

Yes, that's fine, enabling the iptables service. But in my case a real set of firewall rules was there, which I've never seen before (/etc/sysconfig/iptables file normally is empty or not existing).

I was certain that I chose no firewall (as I do during every install I have ever done) but yet the fresh install came up with a set of firewall rules.
I had begun to doubt that I actually checked the firewall as disabled but after reading this I believe it to be a bug.

OK, filed it as bug #105865.

It appears there is now a bug filed on this problem:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105048
You may wish to watch it.
Wouldn't anaconda-ks.cfg have a record of whether or not you set up the firewall to be on? Maybe you can confirm by looking in there.
grep "firewall --disabled" /root/anaconda-ks.cfg

But if the bug was in anaconda then couldn't that show the results caused by the bug instead of the actual selection?

True. I posted that before I saw the other people with similar stories. It probably is a bug. However, if the line had not been there than it would have confirmed that the user had simply forgotten to disable the fw during install.
