Filipe,

I have selinux disabled.
 more /etc/selinux/config
# 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 - SELinux is fully disabled.
SELINUX=disabled

after running "hwclock --debug" the two files you mentioned above
did not have anything extra added.

audit.log just has stuff about drond

messages just has stuff about dhcp.
