Hi,
some sanity checks (I am on Fedora 13; it is up to date):
root at localhost jb]# ls -al /etc/sysconfig/ip*tables
-rw-------. 1 root root 416 Jul 23 13:52 /etc/sysconfig/ip6tables
-rw-------. 1 root root 411 Jul 23 13:52 /etc/sysconfig/iptables

[root at localhost jb]# cat /etc/sysconfig/ip*tables

*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]

-A INPUT -p ipv6-icmp -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp6-adm-prohibited
-A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp6-adm-prohibited

I played with the wizard and all is OK (that may mean only that I did not hit
the "soft" spot ...).
Whatever you do with with it, pay attention to every step becuase there must be
some clue, if it happens during rules editing of course.
