Fred if you use policy_module(pvpgn, 1.0.0)

You will get all of the gen_require stuff for free.

corenet_udp_bind_generic_port(pvpgn_t)
corenet_tcp_bind_generic_port(pvpgn_t)

You really should define a port and then allow pvpgn bind to the
specific port.  (Unless pvpgn binds to random ports?)

If this is on Fedora 10 you might want to add

permissive pvpgn_t;

Which will allow the daemon to run in permissive mode while you are testing.
