Hi!

The tool I was talking about is 'sealert' - a.k.a. SELinux Troubleshooter
installable through the setroubleshoot-server-3.2.24-1.fc22.x86_64 package.
Should you want to launch it from the console, launch it as '# sealert -b'
( the 'b' flag denotes 'browser' mode).

"Is it possible that if I set SELinux to permissive with setenforce 0, it
would not necessarily rule out SELinux?"
Well, it shouldn't :P
>From the man page, that should put SELinux in Permissive mode. You can also
try to completely disable SELinux by editing its configuration file,
/etc/sysconfig/selinux.

Regarding your original issue I'm afraid I'm all but useless here as I'm
using the official Fedora flavor...
GL.
