Ohh.. it seems to be an SELinux issue. I never faced one because disabling SELinux is the first thing I do after installing Fedora. SELinux makes your system more secure, but I guess I'm happy with the conventional security offered by a Linux system.
So, at least as an experiment, try disabling SELinux. There's an "SELinux management" tool, using which you can change the enforcing mode or security policy to "Disabled" (from "enforcing"). You'll probably need to reboot for this to take effect. Syam -- "Freedom is the only law".
