I am using FC5 on a generic Athlon x64 PC. I am having problems with several services.

1. Dovecot refuses to start. When I attempt to start the service I get a message in /var/log/messages as follows: Jun 25 23:05:38 bilbo kernel: audit(1151273138.255:415): avc: denied { create } for pid=1480 comm="dovecot" scontext=user_u:system_r:dovecot_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:system_r:dovecot_t:s0 tclass=socket

Can anyone here give me a hint on what I need to do to get this working? >From the log message, this seems to be something to do with selinux.

Indeed it is. Some more diagnostic info would be useful. Can you post
the output of:

# ausearch -a 415
produces the output >
[root@bilbo network-scripts]# ausearch -a 415
-bash: ausearch: command not found

Clearly, I am missing this application. Where should it be? Which RPM?

It's in the "audit" package.

2. On Samba, I experience a different, but possibly related problem. Samba starts, but I see the following message in the log every few minutes:

Jun 25 23:09:25 bilbo smbd[1502]: Denied connection from (192.168.0.5) Jun 25 23:11:50 bilbo smbd[1513]: [2006/06/25 23:11:50, 0] lib/access.c:check_access(328)

The other PC referred to in the log message is unable to even see the linux share.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a "hosts allow" line in /etc/samba/smb.conf ?
Yes. it reads >     hosts allow = 192.168.0 127.
which has always worked in the past.

Try this:
hosts allow = 192.168.0. 127.

Paul.
