Append to the end of the kernel arguments line in your grub.conf, 'selinux=0' without the quotes and reboot. If that fixes it, throw it back at the selinux mailing list where Stephen Smalley hangs out. Me, I have a good natting router and firewall, and no desire to spend 3 weeks fixing all the gotcha's selinux throws up, so the total disable, and that is the only known way to do it I show above, has been part of my personal bag of headache pills for quite a while now. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
