auditd fails to start on FC6 system, newer kernels effect?

Greetings;

FC6 system, uptodate, kernel 2.6.24-rc3, but this has existed since I 
re-enabled selinux in permissive mode just to see what complained.

The manpage says to use the -f option for foreground troubleshooting, so here 
goes:

[root@coyote linux-2.6.24-rc3]# man auditd
[root@coyote linux-2.6.24-rc3]# which auditd
/sbin/auditd
[root@coyote linux-2.6.24-rc3]# auditd -f

Connection refused sounds as if something else isn't running that should be, 
but no direct clue, so what else needs to run too, before auditd?
