I have a question about what you suggested.  My system is working
normally, but I'd like to know more about audit2allow.  My system (fc3,
selinux enforced, targeted) does not have src under /etc/selinux/targeted/
that has only:  booleans  contexts  policy

and I could not find audit2allow, even from the web site you gave above.

Could you provide more information about it? or any links?

Thanks!
