for the settings to be saved. That way you could turn
off the firewall for testing and turn it back on
without having to respecify the ports that you want
open. Thoughts?
Ignore my earlier mail. I misread what you said. I agree that settings
should be retained when disabled. File a bug report.
I agree that the previous values should be kept. It might make more
sense for the enabled/disabled settings to be configure / clear firewall
configuration.
But then provide text indicating current service iptables status, and
add an additional button(s) as the enable / disable firewall service
button (which could steal code from the system-config-services).
Currently there is no indication in system-config-security that while
the firewall is configured it is not actually started ! [ie a place for
people to get *networkingly* done over].
