As a Fedora Core 3 runner I can tell you this, if you're running se-linux on 
your box, you're going to have troubles doing just about ANYTHING. I would 
probably disable it altogether (unless you really feel like reading through 
tons of forums on how to get it working), as I think I had to disable it on 
mine in order to get telnet working at all since it's considered a security 
vulnerability.
