I think I have it solved.

We use Sun UCE (formerly Aduva Onstage) for patch management.
It looks like UCE is getting in the way.
I built another SLES10 SP1 machine where I could set the firewall to

It stops working after I install the UCE agent, and works again after I
uninstall the agent.

Thanks for you help.
