Bash Problem

[Dawes, Stephen]

Janina,

I ran into something like this awhile back. 
I did some research into my problem, and all I could attribute it to is
selinux. 
Everything that I read as a result of a google search on my error
pointed to selinux.
As soon as I turned selinux off all start working again. 
I discovered that my problem was not just only in a script that I was
writing at the time, but that it was also causing problems in scripts
that were working all along.
They all started working as they should as soon as I disabled selinux.

Now, to the how do you disable selinux.
There is a selinux config file in /etc/selinux.
Edit /etc/selinux/config and change the appropriate settings.

To help, here is what my /etc/selinux/config file looks like:
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
#       enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
#       permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
#       disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.
# SELINUX=enforcing
SELINUX=disabled
# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values:
#       targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected.
#       strict - Full SELinux protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted 

Hope this solves your problem.
