Installed Service Cannot Open Ports

My stock answer these days to any sort of problem liek this is to test
it using network rather than Network Manager.

AS root:

# chkconfig NetworkManager off
# chkconfig network on

Reboot.  If it now works and you don't need wireless, you have fixed it.
If you need wireless log another NetworkManger defect use case.
