OT: building a new MS machine and stuck at the firewall

[Billy A. Pumphrey]

Well I thought that I was not a newbie, but I am already stuck and
having not did anything but install CentOS 4.2.

I opted to enable the firewall during the setup, and now I do not even
know how to turn it off let alone configure the iptables, as it seems
that I need to do.  I searched and searched and I really just want to
turn it off because it is not directly on the net.

Any simple command ex: service firewall stop chkconfig firewall or
something to turn it off?

Thank you
