Hello
 Everytime, I log on on fedora 8, I get the setroubleshoot browser popup with this:
"Summary :

 SELinux is preventing nm-system-setti (NetworkManager_t) "read" to ./PolicyKit (hald_var_lib_t).
Detailed Description :
SELinux denied access requested by nm-system-setti. It is not expected that this access is required by nm-system-setti and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access.
Allowing Access
Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore the default system file context for ./PolicyKit, restorecon -v './PolicyKit' If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended. Please file a bug report against this package. "

"this access may signal an intrusion attempt", is someone is trying to
get into my computer ?

how do I fix that ?
