SElinux causes Nagios issues?

[Jonathan Carpenter <jonathan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have installed Nagios on Fedora 4, I have nagios and apache both
configured however when I visit http://127.0.0.1/nagios/ I see the main
page but then I get this error when I click on any option on the side
of the page:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

my apache error log shows this:

(13)Permission denied: exec of '/usr/local/nagios/sbin/status.cgi' failed, referer: http://127.0.0.1/nagios/side.html

I read from a message board online that I may need to disable SElinux.
Has anyone else had this problem or have any ideas why I might be
getting this error? And if it could be SElinux how do I shut it off? I
have edited /etc/selinux/conf and specified disabled but I am not sure
how to turn it off.

              Thanks,
