Thanks that helped (plus the disabling of it in /etc/sysconfig/selinux).

Yeah, the company adds this...like it will do a lot of good!

Does apache have access to this location through normal permissions? Is your alias for /hobbit set up correctly?

3.               I've even chcon the files to httpd_sys_content_t
   

This has to be done on more than just the files. It has to follow the whole path. Under default selinux rules, apache cannot access / so it can't get to /home to even begin looking.

Does CentOs 4.3 have SELinux enabled as shipped? (I'm not producing

any files in /var/log/audit) (How do you tell if it's active?)

Yes, selinux is enabled by default on RHEL4 and CentOS4, unless you disable it during install. To tell if it's active use the command 'getsebool'. It'll tell you if it's enabled and what type of policy it's using (enforcing or permissive). Messages only log to /var/log/audit if auditd is running, otherwise it logs in /var/log/messages. Check there for AVC messages.
