Firewalls can monitor all connections: into a machine, out of a machine, or within a machine.

As for why: a user-space program can ignore a connection but it can't refuse a connection. Only the kernel does that. As such, it does seem like some sort a firewall is still running. Unfortunately I am not familiar enough with selinux, fedora, etc to be of much help.

You might try running iptables -L to see if there is anything obvious. If there is then you need to work out what part of the system put it there.

NB: if the add-the-IP-address change to the WD parameters is still there then connections to 127.0.0.1 won't work because calibre isn't listening on the local interface.
