syslogd not syslogging

[Paul Iadonisi]

  Okay, I've skimmed the -devel and -test lists and looked for relevant
information in bugzilla and haven't seen anything.  Seems all I'm
getting since my install of fc3t2 -- or maybe it was after my first 'yum
update' -- in my /var/log/messages is the start and stop messages from
syslogd:

Oct  2 16:28:40 ws187 exiting on signal 15
Oct  2 16:30:45 ws187 syslogd 1.4.1: restart.
Oct  2 17:10:47 ws187 exiting on signal 15
Oct  2 17:10:47 ws187 syslogd 1.4.1: restart.

  And *nothing* in my /var/log/maillog (which should contain lots of
stuff since I'm running cyrus-imapd with lmtp and sendmail).
  Seems it's selinux related, as there are several messages like the
following:

audit(1096753583.523:0): avc:  denied  { search } for  pid=2765
exe=/sbin/minilogd dev=tmpfs ino=817 scontext=user_u:system_r:syslogd_t
tcontext=user_u:object_r:tmpfs_t tclass=dir


on boot and when restarting the syslog service.  Also, logging works as
expected when running with selinux=0 in my grub.conf.
  Any thoughts?  Did I hose something or is this a known problem that I
missed the discussion of on this list?
