Oh, very interesting. I'm seeing this problem here as well, but I see why it doesn't affect anything.
When I start up mongod, I get an AVC that looks like:
type=AVC msg=audit(1322540873.004:69): avc: denied { name_bind } for pid=993 comm="mongod" src=28017 scontext=system_u:system_r:mongod_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unreserved_port_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket
Notice that it says pid=993. However, my currently running mongod process seems to be PID 986. What that seems to say to me is that mongod is forking some helper process during bootup, leaking a file descriptor, and that is being reported as an AVC. It is probably mostly harmless, but it is indeed a bug. I'll see if I can find some time to track down the file descriptor leak.
Thanks for the report.

Description of problem: When starting the mongod service I get an selinux error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mongodb-1.8.2-9.fc16.x86_64 mongodb-server-1.8.2-9.fc16.x86_64 libmongodb-1.8.2-9.fc16.x86_64 Additional info: Output from sealert: SELinux is preventing mongod from name_bind access on the tcp_socket port 28017. ***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that mongod should be allowed name_bind access on the port 28017 tcp_socket by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
