'xymonnet' is RED on the server

The message is /usr/local/sbin/fping -Ae failed with error-code 4
/usr/local/sbin/fping:  can't create raw socket (must be run as root?):
operation not permitted

The permissions for fping in the directory are:
-rwxr-xr-x. root root fping

chmod u+s /usr/local/sbin/fping

to make it suid-root. If that doesn't do it, then there may be some CentOS
SELinux settings?
