I'm busy setting up amavisd-new on a CentOS 5.0 box - and believe I've got it working well enough that I can switch selinux enforcing back on again.
I've done the usual-
<snippage>
- now I do 'semodule -i amavis.pp' to load the module- but instead of
working I instead get this error:
libsepol.print_missing_requirements: amavis's global requirements were not met: type/attribute amavis_t libsemanage.semanage_link_sandbox: Link packages failed semodule: Failed!
For the record I've solved it. Turns out that there is already an amavis.pp loaded - it is included in the selinux-policy-targetted package- despite the fact amavis isn't part of RHEL/ CentOS5.
Solution was to remake my module and make sure it ends up named "myamavis.pp" - and now I can load it with no problems. In Dan Walsh's blog ( http://danwalsh.livejournal.com/8637.html ) he does recommend putting "my" on the front of every custom module in order to prevent name clashes - just wish I'd read and heeded his advice earlier.
Cheers,
