I forgot to mention that I originally set it up in permissive mode. It did
report warnings for these services. I then ran fixfiles check. It did not report
any problems. So I guess I am still not sure whay these prevention warnings
occured. I was just curious it someone knew and if there was something I could
do to correct it. I can always disable SELinux. Should I report this as a
bugzilla?
