Did you run the system-config-services from a terminal or from a gui?  
If from a terminal, was there no stdout and/or stderr output?  It's 
possible the selinux comment is affecting your ability to run the 
system-config-services as root.  Try disabling selinux temporarily and 
then running system-config-services.
