HI,
Am not really sure if theres some bug or feature due to which your iptables
starts.
The best solution which i can think of is add a line in your rc.local file
to stop iptables service.
rc.local file is a script file which is executed after all services. so it
should stop iptables in last before your system is ready to use.
hope it helps.
regards,
Viket
Hi Viket,
I think at installation time some packages gets installed which requires
iptables in running mode because i tried installing fedora at least 5 times
with different package selection. After my last installation i got expected
result. Now iptables is in disabled mode working fine for me.
May be next time I will find out which are those packages.
By the way thanks,
Regards,
Pushpraj N
