Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/avahi-autoipd "net_raw" access. Detailed Description: SELinux denied access requested by avahi-autoipd. It is not expected that this access is required by avahi-autoipd 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) Please file a bug report.

Does avahi really need raw access to the network?
avahi-autoipd does, because it synthesizes ARP messages for implementation of IPV4LL/APIPA to assing a link-local IP address when DHCP is not available. avahi-daemon itself does not.
You can add these rules for now using # grep avc /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Fixed in selinux-policy-3.6.32-60.fc12.noarch
