Yes, in fact the error came only once and the change was commited 
anyway, therefore it's more by curiosity than a real problem, but I 
think it's always better to be sure ;-)

I am using CentOS (for the first time, choice of our provider).
CentOS 5.4

# uname -a
Linux (server) 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 3 03:28:30 EDT 2009 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Installed Packages
Name       : shadow-utils
Arch       : x86_64
Epoch      : 2
Version    : 4.0.17
Release    : 14.el5

# sestatus
SELinux status:                 enabled
SELinuxfs mount:                /selinux
Current mode:                   permissive

Sorry I know it looks strange but I am customising the server as 
installed by the provider and in the past I never used SELinux...

Thanks a lot for your help :-) (And hope it will help others some day 
too...)
