CentOS does not open ports like that when you install a package, that's something you have to do yourself.
I recently heard a podcast (http://twit.tv/floss62) talking about eBox which sounded like a management platform that does something like what you are looking for.

Maybe I just haven't installed enough distros, but the times I've installed CentOS, I've had to remember that by default, iptables is blocking inbound port 80 requests. This leads me to believe that I have a non-OS firewall error because I can ping but not http request.
Is there a particular reason for this? Or is it a fail on my end?
Thanks, David
