I am not sure this is an SELinux problem.  First have you established 
that you are running SELinux
setstatus should tell you.  Check the log file for AVC messages.  If you 
see messages concerning file_t
you need to relabel.  If you do not see AVC messages the problem 
probably is not SELinux
touch /.autorelabel
reboot
