Sorry! Didn't see until later you were able to sign up

at RedHat. Maybe RH allows connection to itself by
default in lokkit.
The default gui for iptables in RH9 is a program
called lokkit. 
first try to shutdown iptables 
as root #/sbin/service iptables stop

you can remove lokkit as root 
w/ the command #rpm -e lokkit*.rpm
reports I've gathered are that this program is kinda
buggy.
