Hello All,

I set up ltsp regulary, on Centos6 machines.

This morning I have a Selinux problem that usualy does not occur:
after setting everything up, the thinclients boot, but nobody can login.

It only works after the command :

# echo 0 > /selinux/enforce

I tried this semanage command:

# semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t /usr/bin/xauth

but it makes no difference.

The message I'm now seeing in /var/log/audit/audit.log :

type=AVC msg=audit(1385112688.399:67769): avc:  denied  { write } for  
pid=8218 comm="xauth" name="caw" dev=md1 ino=262145

subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:xauth_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null)

Can anybody help me overcome this without disabling Selinux?

Many thanks.
Greetings, J.
