Try to execute

# chcon -t bin_t /usr/libexec/kde4/kcmdatetimehelper

will turn off the kcmdatetimehelper policy. Please try it and let me know if kcmdatetimehelper works as expected.

Thank you.
Comment 3 Giovanni Tirloni 2011-12-06 13:41:47 UTC 
Now it doesn't complain about not being able to contact the ntp server and no SELinux warning is created but it crashes with the following message:

"Unable to execute the action: 6,"

And the KDE Crash helper pops up.

I verified pool.ntp.org is accessible and can correctly sync time with ntpdate.
Comment 4 Miroslav Grepl 2011-12-06 14:01:52 UTC 
It doesn't look like SELinux issue. If you switch to permissive mode

# setenforce 0

does it work? After that switch back to enforcing mode.

# setenforce 1
Comment 5 Miroslav Grepl 2012-12-15 18:55:50 UTC 
It has been fixed in KDE.
