Something's changing iptables. If it's not changing the
/etc/sysconfig/iptables file, then it must be changing
iptables on
the fly, after init starts iptables (which uses the
/etc/sysconfig/iptables file). Anything in rc.local?

I think you may have found the issue. Here is what is in rc.local
## Bring up firewall
/sbin/iptables-restore < /etc/rc.d/firewall.ruleset
I think that is what is causing my issue.
Would it be okay to change the /etc/rc.d/firewall.ruleset to
/etc/sysconfig/iptables ??
Thanks again,
Scott
rc.local is used for local customization. I've no idea how what
you have got there. I do have a firewall.ruleset file on my
system, but it doesn't belong to any package, and I don't see
anywhere that it's used.
I would simply comment out what you have in rc.local, and let the
stock settings operate as they do. Just check to be sure that
iptables is started (# chkconfig --list iptables), and iptables
should start normally with whatever is in your
/etc/sysconfig/iptables file.

Commenting out that line in rc.local seems to have done the trick. I
have this same issue on two of my QMT boxes. They were both loaded
from the QMT 5 ISO cd-rom. Might be something that needs to be checked.
Thanks again Eric!

No checking needed. The ISO contains a firewall setup and is documented
on the ISO page on the wiki:
