Disable and Stop the Firewalls

    Run the following commands while logged in as the root user:

    /sbin/chkconfig iptables off

    /sbin/chkconfig ip6tables off

    /etc/init.d/iptables stop

    /etc/init.d/ip6tables stop

    Disable SELinux

    Edit the file /etc/selinux/config:

    Change the SELINUX= line from

    SELINUX=enforcing

    to:

    SELINUX=disabled

     

    Normally, this change to the /etc/selinux/config would only take effect on the next reboot, but you can also disable SELinux immediately by running the following command as root:

    • echo 0 >/selinux/enforce


    • No labels
