I am migrating a samba server from FC3 to FC5. I did a fresh install and
have run into an SELINUX policy issue. I have no problem logging on as
root and typing in rsync --daemon, but when I insert the same line at the
end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local and reboot, then /var/log/messages shows the
following (with other stuff edited out).

What do I need to do to allow rsync --daemon from within /etc/rc.d/rc.local?
