I logged bugzilla
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=120302 about the

Others are reporting a firewall getting set up even though they asked
for no firewall.  This could be your problem.  You can check your
firewall settings by entering "iptables-save" or "iptables --list".  I
don't know if running system-config-security will allow you to
successfully turn the firewall off.
