OT: Centos 6 question

[Steve Campbell]

OK, got the new version installed, turned iptables off (even though 'ps' 
didn't show them running) and seems well now.

I'm not sure what ps is supposed to show for iptables in this version, 
but it appears it's iptables that was stopping it.

Thanks all for all the help and have a great holiday.
