Everyone,
I recently had a disc drive failure on a centos 5.8 internal mail
server. I replaced the drive and installed centos 6.3. I had selinux
turned off on the 5.8 machine, and with the upgrade to 6.3 decided to
leave selinux active with the hopes I had learned enough to be able to
use it.
I have a couple of perl scripts that are activated by email that prints
the contents of the mail packet on a printer. I have been able to fix
the temporary directories that are used with changes of selinux
permissions, but I have not been able to make everything work with the
command :
$arg = ("lp -o raw -d $LPT $MAILFILEO");
system($arg);
I get the following log entry :
Can't exec "lp": Permission denied at /usr/local/bin/s.printer.process
line 190, <FILEI> line 19.
Any ideas how I can get 'lp' to accept usage from the 'mail' user
account? Everything works ok when selinux is turned off. I would like
to keep it on at this point.
Thanks,
Greg Ennis
