Description
This test case tests whether disabling the firewall works correctly in a kickstart-driven installation.
Setup
- Prepare a test system (virtual or real) with sufficient memory to install Fedora, an empty hard disk (or such that you do not mind losing the contents of all connected hard disks: this test WILL wipe all hard disks connected to the test system), and (ideally) a network connection and another system from which you can connect to the test system
How to test
- Boot using a dedicated installer image for the Fedora release you wish to test
- At the boot menu, edit the options for one of the "Install Fedora" options to include the parameter inst.ks=http://fedorapeople.org/groups/qa/kickstarts/firewall-disabled-net.ks
- The installation should run unattended: allow it to complete, boot the installed system (log in as 'root' with password 'anaconda'), and check the state of the firewall using
sudo iptables -L -v
(no REJECT rules should be present in the output) orsudo firewall-cmd --state
(should report not running), and/or by attempting to connect to a port or running service from the other test system
Expected Results
- The firewall should be disabled
