Derek,
     This is a stock install of RHEWS 4, with an up2date upgrade ran as 
of yesterday. SO the SE policy is from RedHat.
     One question: Is the "kernel: openafs: no version for "sys_close" 
found: kernel tainted." entry from my /var/adm/messages due to the 
SELinux problem or did munge the openafs install?
