(Everything else worked, apparently.) So don't > immediately dismiss Karl's claims... Yeah I don't dismiss his "claims". Maybe his problems are to do with selinux, who knows. I just dismiss how quickly he gets to choose "selinux" as today's culprit. It's a bit like watching a Creationist do debugging. "Starting from the FACT in my BOOK that selinux is the culprit..."

When you follow those rules most things you say become speculative and tentative until you have the whole story. -Andy
