This is the policy I add to the CentOS 7 machines: module fail2ban-journal-sepol-new 1.0; require { type fail2ban_client_exec_t; type logrotate_t; type fail2ban_t; type syslogd_var_run_t; class dir read; class file { ioctl read execute execute_no_trans open getattr }; } #============= fail2ban_t ============== #!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy allow fail2ban_t syslogd_var_run_t:dir read; #!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy allow fail2ban_t syslogd_var_run_t:file { read getattr open }; #============= logrotate_t ============== allow logrotate_t fail2ban_client_exec_t:file { ioctl read execute execute_no_trans open }; What’s the best way to report the selinux problems in EPEL packages, btw? > HTH > > -- > *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** > James B.
