How do I disable the firewall in RHEL 6.8?
I tried



service iptables stop
chkconfig iptables off
service ip6tables stop
chkconfig iptables off


I can see that the service is off and disabled by running:



service iptables status
chkconfig --list iptables


The problem is that after I reboot the system iptables starts again. I grepped for "iptables" in /etc/init.d but did not find anything relevant.

          I have access to both RHEL 6.9 systems and CentOS 6.9 systems and while both have internet access and while I don't want to boot them with the firewall turned off to test, have you tried running the system-config-firewall-tui command? Perhaps it does something slightly different than what chkconfig does (i.e. see /etc/sysconfig/system-config-firewall).



           $ sudo system-config-firewall-tui


          It starts a console-gui that opens with an option to disable:



          system-config-firewall

          ┌───────────┤ Firewall Configuration ├───────────┐
          │ │
          │ A firewall protects against unauthorized │
          │ network intrusions. Enabling a firewall blocks │
          │ all incoming connections. Disabling a firewall │
          │ allows all connections and is not recommended. │
          │ │
          │ Firewall: [*] Enabled │

          │ │
          └────────────────────────────────────────────────┘


          Perhaps you should see if your system has this command and determine if it does what you desire.
