umm.. are you sure? Seemed to work just fine for me... However, I
will agree that SELinux on RH is a bit broken, you have to jump
through hoops, and define custom policies to get even stock packages
like LDAP and Samba working in stock configs.

You know what my biggest issue with RH is?
No XFS support in the base distribution. Oh yeah, the kernel has the
xfs modules built in, but it's not officially supported.
You can't even get access to the xfsprogs, it's a "Layered product"
With an Ubuntu or Debian install, you don't seem to have to pay
extra to get "layered products"
for basic functionality, like XFS GFS, clustering, virtualization, etc
At least CentOS doesn't have any of that foolishness, they don't
have "editions" or restrictions on which RPMs you can have access to
like RHN does.
