i think the above one is something related to selinux.so i disabled selinux stopped iptables & disabled firewall.
/sbin/fixfiles restore
but still i get the above error message in my /var/log/messages
I would suggest that if you are still getting this message, then you haven't disabled selinux properly.
That would be to edit the file /etc/sysconfig/selinux and to set this:
SELINUX=disabled
Then ... reboot
Also, there should be no reason to stop/disable the firewall to stop these messages - I strongly recommend you re-enabled it ASAP.
Good idea :)
