Summary: SELinux is preventing rndc (ndc_t) "read" security_t. Detailed Description: SELinux denied access requested by rndc. It is not expected that this access is required by rndc 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. Allowing Access: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (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 bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this package.

You can add these rules now using # grep avc /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Fixed in selinux-policy-3.6.12-57.fc11
Works fine for me with selinux-policy-3.6.12-78.fc11.noarch (without any local policy).
