Hi,
I'm running several fully updated CentOS 5.2 servers and am trying to get all the SELinux denials sorted out.
Here are two of the ones that I've got left. I can generate local policy to allow these but is that the best way. The full sealert messages have been cut.
1. SELinux is preventing iptables (iptables_t) "read write" to socket (initrc_t). For complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l 80760bb0-da8f-4fe8-855a-1cfc5789a597
[root@garryowen ~]# sealert -l 80760bb0-da8f-4fe8-855a-1cfc5789a597
Summary:
SELinux is preventing iptables (iptables_t) "read write" to socket (initrc_t).
Detailed Description:
SELinux denied access requested by iptables. It is not expected that this ...
Allowing Access: You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ ...
