As root/root equivalent on your system, type the following:
# chkconfig --list | grep iptables
You'll see something similar to: iptables 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
If you see "on" in rows 3, 4, and 5, it means the firewall will be started on system startup. To disable auto startup, type the following:
# chkconfig iptables off
How are you disabling the firewall? You can do so by typing the following:
# service iptables stop
If the "iptables stop" fails, try:
# service ipchains stop
Please let me know if the above doesn't work.
