Yesterday I activated SELinux in targeted mode, then I rebooted and started receiving some error messages in the system services initialization: ====================================================================== audit(1156518721.252:2): avc: denied { read } for pid=2223 comm="syslogd" name="libc-2.3.4.so" dev=dm-0 ino=50441 scontext=user_u:system_r:syslogd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file audit(1156518721.280:5): avc: denied { append } for pid=2224 comm=" syslogd" name="messages" dev=dm-3 ino=38 scontext=user_u:system_r:syslogd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file audit(1156518721.757:7): avc: denied { read } for pid=2246 comm="portmap" name="libnsl-2.3.4.so" dev=dm-0 ino=48836 scontext=user_u:system_r:portmap_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file audit(1156518728.009:10): avc: denied { read } for pid=2411 comm="named" name="liblwres.so.1.1.2" dev=dm-0 ino=462795 scontext=user_u:system_r:named_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file audit(1156518728.032:13): avc: denied { read } for pid=2411 comm="named" name="libgssapi_krb5.so.2" dev=dm-0 ino=459694 scontext=user_u:system_r:named_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=lnk_file ====================================================================== The SELinux policies in use are the default from Centos packages (I haven't changed anything). Surely this bind, portmap and syslogd packages came from Centos base or update. bind-chroot is not installed. Bind seems to be working fine - as a cache and as a nameserver - even with those errors. Syslog also *seems* to be ok, as it keeps logging things on /var/log/, even in /var/log/messages. I don't use Portmap, but I have left it activated. Anyways, iptables blocks it. Any ideas on what is causing the problems and how to solve it ? Thanks -- Vilela -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
