Summary: SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python "connect" access . Detailed Description: [system-config-f has a permissive type (firewallgui_t). This access was not denied.] SELinux denied access requested by system-config-f. It is not expected that this access is required by system-config-f 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://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug report.
