Good that you sorted that out. A word of warning though, just yesterday I ran into a case where the command to "turn the firewall off", didn't. What it did instead was wall off the machine. This was on a vanilla Mandriva 2007.1 machine, after: /etc/rc.d/init.d/shorewall stop iptables showed that the Input and Forward chains were set to DROP. Of course the only way I could find this out was on the console of that machine, which was luckily only about 5 feet way. This may be what is desired in some instances, but it wasn't what I wanted here. (Plus it would suck big time if that happened on a remotely administered machine.) To really get rid of the firewall /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables stop was also needed. After that iptables --list showed the expected ACCEPT on all 3 chains and the packets that needed to get through for the test finally did.
