Usually I can make some sense of SELinux' inscrutable gibberish (I kid, I kid), but this one is new to me. My guess would be a directory access of some kind--to what? * Why am I running rpc.statd? I thought that was for NFS, which I'm not using, although I do have nfs-utils installed for some reason. Rpm tells me that nothing else requires nfs-utils, is there any reason not to simply remove it? Authconfig appears to want rpc.statd running at least. Maybe I don't need authconfig either. Any clues appreciated.
