When I tried the "modprobe -r ip_tables" it gave me an error that the device was busy. The previous two commands seemed to work ok.
If I use iptables, should I remove ipchains completely? Right now the firewall is stuck on "High" and I can't change it. Can I uninstall ipchains, by removing the rpm? Will that do it? How do I then open it up so there is no firewall? Isn't there a few iptables command to flush the rules or something? Then I can work on closing it back up again using the other tools you suggested.
