You can put it into non-enforcing mode on the fly with the command:

  setenforce 0

Run "setenforce 1" to turn it back on.

One of SELinux' many charms is that a program's ability to do stuff can
depend on where it is invoked. I'm sure this is great for making fine
grained controls, but it also makes for terrible debugging situations.
