Description of problem:
 SELinux denied access requested by ntpd. It is not expected that this access
    is required by ntpd and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is
    also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application
    is causing it to require additional access.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-strict-2.6.4-70.fc7
selinux-doc-1.26-1.1
selinux-policy-mls-2.6.4-70.fc7
selinux-policy-2.6.4-70.fc7
selinux-policy-devel-2.6.4-70.fc7

Additional info: 
Allowing Access
    Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.  You could try to
    restore the default system file context for log, restorecon -v log If this
    does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access.
    Instead,  you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see
    http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you can disable
    SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not
    recommended. Please file a http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi
    against this package.
