The service isn't running. You don't say what service you're trying to run, or what version of RHEL either. If the service is up and running, the port will be listening. Otherwise, it won't. Running netstat -an will show it, regardless of how the firewall is configured.
Have you checked the log(s) for the service you're trying to run?
