Ricky Bingo. having exactly the same problem. Red-hat couldn't care less as I am just a prole user and their support for 'personal' edition seems to extend to 'can you see the prompt'.
Anyway, flame out of the way, I know this much: The Security Level and Lokkit utilities *do not* read the current configuration but assume you are starting from a default (High) level. Thus you can set a new configuration and it will not be reflected if you restart the utility. I think I have my system open at the moment (which is a risk except I'm hidden behind a cable router) and still cannot connect to SWAP using http://localhost:901/. localhost is set in my hosts file (I've no DNS server - it's only a home network). It's a conundrum but a problem shared etc etc BTW someone out there might know why there seems to be this convention for utilities not to read the current configuration. In Windows, they all do. I'm trying to get away from it but this is bizarre.
