If you want to completely disable the firewall, you
have a few choices. If you feel more comfortable with
graphical tools, simply run setup and goto system
services and uncheck iptables, ipchains and ip6tables.
If you like the command line, type: service iptables
stop
and then you can turn it on/off in certain runlevels
using chkconfig by typing: chkconfig 0123456 iptables
off

and you can alternatively see if things are off/on by
typing: chkconfig --list SERVICENAME ;
 where SERVICENAME is iptables, ipchains or ip6tables
and it will tell you which runlevels it's on or off.
If you run in graphical mode, you run in runlevel 5,
otherwise you run in runlevel 3. If you want it off,
turn it off in all runlevels.
