Hi,

I've just updated my desktop to FC4, have updated the policy to latest 
available versions, and am having problems with selinux denying access to a 
file I can't even find! Hoping someone can help.

OS: FC4, updated today.
Policy 1-25-1
Mode Targeted
kernel 2.6.12.1 (kernel.org)

I've tried a general relabeling (admittedly, not since the most recent update, 
but then it did something similar in the update itself).

I'm not quite sure what effect the denials are having, but the system is not 
very stable at present.
