I have started working with a project called Folding@Home.
It is a distributed computing project from http://folding.stanford.edu
The easiest way to run it is as a service. If I try to do this, SELinux does not allow it.
It starts perfectly if I have SELinux in permissive mode, but not in enforcing.
I do not have a clue how to write a rule to allow it.
Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,

Gary

finstall script (http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=2283) works for me. I had to install the actual service as root, but that was it.
