Hi,
We run many Library / web / database applications on RedHat servers with
SELinux enabled. Sometimes it takes a bit of investigation and horsing
around but I haven't yet found a situation where it had to be disabled.
setsebool and chcon can solve most problems and SELinux is an
excellent enhancement to standard filesystem and ACL security.

Hi all,
Thanks for your extensive suggestions and comments. A few folks suggested that
SELinux might be the issue. Tobin's suggestion to change one of the settings
proved effective:
"# setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1".
Thanks to everyone who helped -- I learned a lot.

Hi,
I had a similar problem a while back which was solved by disabling
SELinux. http://www.crypt.gen.nz/selinux/disable_selinux.html
