And what are the error messages that tell you that this is
SELinux-related? (you could well be correct)

Pasting an example would help.
Look for messages containing 'avc' and 'http' in /var/log/messages
or possibly /var/log/audit/audit.log (only if you are running auditd)

What are the httpd error messages when you try to access a CGI script?

Have you enabled the cgi boolean for httpd?

# setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi=1

what is the context on
/mnt/webservice
and its subdirectories?

# ls -Zd mnt/webservice/splicecgi-bin
# ls -Zd /mnt/webservice/splicehtml


does normal http service work for those virtualhosts?

I have set the http_enable_cgi=1

[root@(protected) ~]# ls -Zd /mnt/webservice/splicecgi-bin/
drwxrwxrwx  root     root     system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t /mnt
/webservice/splicecgi-bin/
[root@(protected) ~]# ls -Zd /mnt/webservice/splicehtml/
drwxrwxrwx  root     root     system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t /mnt
/webservice/splicehtml/


Here is the last couple of lines from /var/log/messages

Sep 29 12:07:50 bioinformatics kernel: audit(1159546070.572:41083): avc:

Thanks for your help.

Cheers ../murli
