Well, I am going to hate to say this, but it seems like it is the kernel.
I was using 2.6.22.1-41.fc7 and now that I reset and started with the old
kernel, 2.6.22.1-33.fc7 everything is working fine.

Nevertheless, I would like to understand what is going on. I mean, I
disabled iptables and SELINUX because I did not want to be bothered by this
kind of stuff at my own home system.

How do I turn on logging for iptables if the whole iptables is supposed to
be off?
