I do not understand why do you u like things like lokkit and so on. Why 
don't u try to read the iptables manual because they r not firewalls 
they r just frontends for iptables. I like being in control of iptables 
and write my own rules. And you can understand better how they work.

So my answer should be:
$man iptables
$man chkconfig
