avc: denied { append } SELinux issue?

I have a shell script that is trying to write to a file "upd.log" via an entry in /etc/syslog.conf...

I am getting the below error:

localhost kernel: audit(1147975142.650:2): avc: denied { append } for pid=1729 comm="syslogd" name="upd.log" dev=dem-0 ino=8978753 scontect=user_u:system_r:syslogd_t tcontect=root:object_r:usr_t tclass=file

After researching this, it appears that it is due to SELinux, but I'm not entirely sure how to fix it. I've seen audit2allow and such, but I need assistance with the syntax and confirmation that I am on the right path.

I took SELinux off my machines for this very reason; however, clients did not follow suit Anyone have experience with SELinux?

Thanks in advance...
