Hi!
having problems with selinux for sylog and portmapper. Also cannot change

I have been checking with nsa-selinux forum, and some of the ppl recommend
that i ask this forum.
You need to relabel you file system. I would update to the latest
policy and relabel your
file system
yum upgrade selinux-policy-targeted
touch /.autorelabel
reboot

The most likely scenario is that you never labeled your filesystems, or
that you ran with SELinux disabled for some period of time and thus
ended up with some files without security labels. Touch /.autorelabel
and reboot, or run /sbin/fixfiles relabel and reboot. BTW, this kind of
question belongs on fedora-selinux-list, not here, IMHO.
