Either SELinux is disabled or your filesystem doesn't support extended
attributes.
Check /proc/cmdline to see if the kernel was instructed to disable
SELinux, and check /etc/sysconfig/selinux.
Check /proc/mounts to see what filesystem type your system is using.
Use "tune2fs -l" to see if an ext3/4 filesystem has the "user_xattr" option.
