I don't think you actually read the FAQ at 
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/ to a good extend since it 
already answers this but I will explain again.

Go to System => Administration => Firewall and SELinux. Enter your root 
password. Go to the third tab labeled SELinux, change the SELinux 
setting from Permissive to Enforcing and reboot the system.

If you want to do the same from the command line

edit /etc/sysconfig/selinux and change SELINUX=permissive to enforcing

# touch /.autorelabel
# reboot

If you didn't understand anything about this process, ask.
