APF is a great firewall that works arround IPTables. Sometimes its nice to try something out and you decide against it, or want to try a different product, etc.
Since you dont need two firewalls, its time to uninstall. Since there are so many tutorials on how to install APF (not to mention it comes with a simple to use install script) I will skip the install part, but if you want to uninstall or remove the firewall, keep reading.
Stop APF Service, and use chkconfig to make sure it does not try and get auto started on reboots.
service apf stop
chkconfig afp offClean IPTables,
iptables -FIf cronjobs active, remove APF from there. I will just move the cron job file in case we ever want it back, but you can just as easily delete it if you know you wont be using APF again or would prefer to auto re-install.
mv /etc/cron.daily/fw ~/fw.old.daily.cronIf you want to remove all APF afiles:
rm -rf /etc/apf
rm -f /etc/init.d/apf /var/log/apf*You should be done, and can now install something else :)
