Summary: selinux denials of spamd reading files in /var/lib/spamassassin/ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187974 ------- Additional Comments From nicolas.mailhot@xxxxxxxxxxx 2006-12-15 03:49 EST ------- (In reply to comment #6) > As far as /var/lib: > Is this something the fedora package changes or is this something new? It's somehow a new upstream feature where updated rules can be distributed separately from the main engine, so the sa people do not have to do full releases every time a spammer thinks of a new trick (similar to new AV checksums) > Does > spamd need to read files in /var/lib? Does it need to write them there? sa needs read access to /var/lib/spamassassin, the rules updating is supposed to be done by a super-user (allowing sa to self-update its ruleset would of course be dangerous) IMHO /var/lib and not /var/cache or /var/spool is the right place for this kind of stuff -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
