Seems I fixed this. For those of you who have this problem. There are 
TWO places that you have to disable selinux. Why, I don't know. But, 
this thread:

http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-1876.html

states that you must have
    SELINUX=disabled
in
    /etc/sysconfig/selinux

Which I do.

Someone also states in the thread that:
"The line in grub.conf should be selinux=0"

which I didn't.

I added this to my kernel line and rebooted. This fixed the problem
